Nice flat walk. quite corner of the nature

Pitsford Dam is an expansive reservoir surrounded by countryside. It was completed in the 1950s and serves as a vital water supply for the region. There are walking and cycling paths surrounding the lake and lots of beautiful landscaps and wildlife.

Roadside parking available where Manor Road meets Brampton Valley Way.

Get up close to the Pitsford Water dam and enjoy expansive views over the glassy waters.

A great little cafe to fuel up before your walk. You can also hire bikes here if you'd prefer to cycle around the water.

Built around 1702, a great example of Queen Anne architecture. Supposedly the inspiration for Jane Austen's Mansfield Park, the house and grounds are well worth stopping by. The award winning gardens in particular are spectacular.

Great road to clear the head and work the legs

Please be careful of the ruts. Also there is a village and park at the end so look out for kids and dog walkers.

Great views from the top of Merry Tom Lane

The Brampton Valley Way is a 14-mile (22.5 km) trail that makes use of the former Market Harborough to Northampton railway line. It is popular with both walkers and cyclists and is described by Northamptonshire County Council as a linear park. There are two unlit tunnels along the Way, Kelmarsh at 964 feet (294 m) and Oxendon at 1,384 feet (422 m). If you don't want the experience of walking through them, there are bypass paths.

Good bike ride but rather wet under the tree cover in certain areas this time of year

Picturesque village with stately home and grounds - a pleasant section for walking, running, or cycling

We always stop at the cafe for a coffee when we walk or bike round Pitsford. Its pretty flat and hard-ish surfaced paths so it's fairly easy walking or biking. The bike shop has now closed for the foreseeable future. There is parking here but you have to pay. There is a children's playground and public toilets.
