A fantastic short gravel route or combine with Rutland Water cycle path and beyond for a bigger ride. Rutland has some hidden gems

Great area for a hike. If you do not want to go the full circle alternatives to walking back on the same track are a bit limited.

The church was built in classical style for the Normanton Hall estate on the site of a 14th-century building. Except for the tower, the medieval church was rebuilt in 1764 by Sir Gilbert Heathcote, 3rd Baronet. The church was de-consecrated in 1970, and was to have been demolished as part of the reservoir construction, as its floor was below the proposed water level. Following a public outcry, the lower half was filled with stone and rubble, and a concrete cap constructed just below the level of the windows.

Less used than the paths along the north or south shores of Rutland Water, so fewer others to steer around, but still giving great views. If you prefer tarmac, there's an almost empty lane down the centre of the peninsular to its tip (which used to connect to Edith Weston).

Amazing place to walk no matter the weather no hills or muddy places, mainly asphalt. Plenty of places to stop for a break (coffee/tea/snacks) and plenty of benches if you have brought your own refreshments

Fort Henry is a gothic folly, sitting beside a large lake often adorned with water lilies in the heart of Exton Park. Built in 1788 for Henry, Earl of Gainsborough, Fort Henry is located on private grounds, as are the shores of the larger, Northern lake. The public footpath circumnavigates the smaller lake to the South.

An iconic and unusual Rutland landmark. Saved from demolition in the 1970's following public protest, the church now seems to float when the lake is full, at other times it seems as if the lower half has sunk completely, as though the church is too heavy for the ground beneath it.

Perfect picnic spot - FYI, The north shore is private property.
