A calm place

North lake is full of wildlife

Nice view and some interesting pieces of art around. The park itself maintains the feel of being 'constructed' rather than grown.

Willen Lake North is part of the larger Willen Lake in Milton Keynes. The north side is well-known for its wildlife, particularly bird species, and offers quieter walking paths for nature lovers. The lake also includes scenic views of the famous Peace Pagoda, a Buddhist monument built in 1980 by the Nipponzan Myohoji order, which is one of the most iconic landmarks in the area.

The Clappers is a fascinating clump of trees on top of what was an Iron Age fort (!) The ascent is easy, but hikers should note that the descent (down a perilously steep set of makeshift wooden stairs) is challenging in the wet.

A fantastic forest walk with amazing views from above over the Chilterns, particularly towards the north. On the way, you will encounter a memorial by W A Robertson, who gave this area to the National Trust in memory of his brothers who died in the Great War. A great and enjoyable steep set of wooden stairs by the end of this stretch, too, as you rejoin the Chiltern Way.

This is a stunning vantage point to look out at the tranquility and beauty of Willen Lake. A super place to come to blow off some cobwebs.

Consisting of two concentric circles of stone, with longer stones at the north, south, east and west points. The design was inspired by the legends of the Hopi Nation in North America. Their prophesies foretell an age of peace when all nations from the four corners of the earth join a common effort to live in peace and harmony. The Wheel’s design pays homage to British traditions of building circles alongside meeting places and important sites.
