ラクソール・アンド・フェランドの湖・トップ12

Prepare yourself for the coming hill or take a different direction 😁🥵🚵

I found the route along the water to be the most beautiful. The lap went well. For the most part the path is on roads/footpaths and there are a few meters up and down, but everything is doable. There is also a route that leads along the water to the right of the pier, but I haven't tried it.

A nice place to stop for a breather and a snack to prepare for the climb you're likely about to do... whichever way you go.

Clevedon Marine Lake is an unusual swimming pool on the Somerset coast. Every spring tide, the pool fills with seawater from the Bristol Channel. You swim alongside open views across the channel – a unique experience! The lake is open 24/7 and is managed by a community group. They rely on donations so don't forget to put a few coins in the white boxes by the lake or donate online. The lake is open to swimmers, SUPs and canoers. You can bring along your inflatables too. For more information, see: http://clevedonmarinelake.co.uk/

Abbotts Pool is a lovely little lake surrounded by woodland. You reach the lake via a network of lanes and bridleways. It lies on the NCN Route 334. The pools were closed in 2020 due to littering and anti-social behaviour. Makes sure you leave no trace so that humans can enjoy the beautiful spot alongside its wildlife.

Just cautious and considerate of walkers, dogs, children... Nice scenic path though

Abbots Pool is a tranquil pond nestled within an idyllic mature woodland. The pond was originally part of a series of pools developed by medieval monks to farm fish. Due to some antisocial behaviour at the pond, activities such as swimming and barbecues have been banned. However, there are still lots of beautiful trails to explore in this nature reserve, which is home to much wildlife including deer, bats and birds.

Small water feature at the edge of the pond, there are steps leading down to the left where you can get an alternative view, along with a bench for a spot of lunch
