쉬운 태팅스톤 주변 하이킹 및 워킹 코스

The road is a dead end but the lakeside view is very nice. Worth it if you want somewhere scenic to stop although not always very tranquil in the summer with the watersports centre, neighbouring campsite and playground.

the welcome cafe had great flapjacks for refuelling

Completed in 1987, Alton Water is a hive of outdoor activity from watersports, cycling, walking, running, birdwatching and fishing. There is a cafe and toilets at the watersports centre plus camping if you would like to extend your visit.

Alton Water is a popular place for outdoor activity, but really exists as a water source for the people of Ipswich. The dam wall blocks the River Gripping and the water treatment works below the dam can treat up to 10 million imperial gallons of water a day!

Lemons Hill Bridge crosses Alton Water and links the two parts of Tattingstone which were split when the reservoir was created. A great number of buildings were lost. In the north is the village pub, the White Horse, a lovely place to stop on a hike, while in the south is an 18th century workhouse and the parish church. If you are hiking through the village keep an eye out for the red phone box which is home to a collection of audio recordings of people who were impacted by the flooding of the area to make way for Alton Water.

The visitor centre at Alton Water has a cafe, open all week from 10:00am - 4.00pm, there is also an outdoor picnic area. There are 8 miles of cross-country tracks around the reservoir, with bike hire available.
