드레이코트 워터 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Fantastic views over the water and a small beach. Fishermen in waders are often spotted here catching dinner.

Here you can find visitor information, a nice cafe, a small shop and public toilets.

Decent surface & good link to the greenway

Draycote Water is an artificial reservoir (23 million m3), which was completed in 1969. In addition to its function as a water reserve, it is a leisure park u.a. for anglers, sailors, hikers. The rich bird life invites also to observations. Swimming is not allowed in the lake.

Excellent 8km cycling with great views and rest areas.

It's worth the 5 minute walk from the visitor centre for the great views from the trig point, 113m above sea level

There is one problem with this side of Draycote water and that's the bugs. The wind blows across the lake and you get a face of bugs. But the views are good and it's always a good section of a ride, always busy when the weather is good...

Helpful frame erected by Severn Trent for you to frame church and windmill on farside of reservoir and then upload to social media.
