シャドウェルのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

OS地図では歩道としてマークされており、自転車の通行は許可されていません。さらに東へ少し行くと、自転車の通行が許可されている馬道があります。これはColliers Laneから環状道路まで南に走っています。

Some parts can get muddy if there’s been a lot of rain, one section by the cafe is very uneven. Mostly flat, beautiful views of the lake. Very popular with dog walkers and runners.

No cycle ...

Several"No cycling "signs have been fitted at the ring road entrance in the past but they are always vandalised and removed by people who presumably think that cycling should be allowed. This causes conflict between cyclists and walkers which is unfortunate. Some sections of the path can get quite overgrown and narrow.

Rode through from the ring road, no signs posted from my direction, followed the route and at the gate on the Shadwell side said it said no cyclists, a very rude woman walking her dogs nearly knocked me over as she would not let me pass until the last second, they need signs on both sides, but there are plenty of other cycle tracks so I’m not the only one who’s gone through.

Upper Lake is the smaller of the two lakes in this park. There is a well-maintained walking path around both lakes, so you can create a double loop and see all the park has to offer. The route is relatively flat, step-free and welcomes dog walkers.

Waterloo Lake covers 33 acres (13.3 hectres) and is a popular place for rowers, with a relative new rowing club that was first started in 2006. There is a walking trail that takes in a delightfully scenic 5 kilometre (approximately 3.1 miles) loop of the park and both Waterloo Lake and Upper Lake.
