가장 멋진 호수 11곳

The Duchess Pond in the Stoke Park estate is used as a fishing lake. Despite its noisy proximity to the motorway it's a nice place to walk and you may see water birds that are otherwise rare in the Bristol area. Look out for reed warblers, reed bunting and Egyptian geese.

Goram in legend was a giant who fought with his brother Vincent for the attentions of Avona. There are many old names around Bristol that relate to this story and features that depict where one of the giants sat, stamped, dug a trench to allow the river Avon to flow or died. Here is Goram's soap dish.

There's some really big fish in these!

A lovely little pond on the Stoke Park Estate, this would be a tranquil spot were it not for the nearby M32. Nevertheless, it's a pleasant spot both in terms of its scenery and its wildlife. The pond supports bird species such as reed warbler and reed bunting and is also used for angling.

Stop for a rest at this peaceful pond at the bottom of the lane, but watch out for the electric fence!

Abbotts Pool is a lovely little lake surrounded by woodland. You reach the lake via a network of lanes and bridleways. It lies on the NCN Route 334. The pools were closed in 2020 due to littering and anti-social behaviour. Makes sure you leave no trace so that humans can enjoy the beautiful spot alongside its wildlife.

Just cautious and considerate of walkers, dogs, children... Nice scenic path though

Abbots Pool is a tranquil pond nestled within an idyllic mature woodland. The pond was originally part of a series of pools developed by medieval monks to farm fish. Due to some antisocial behaviour at the pond, activities such as swimming and barbecues have been banned. However, there are still lots of beautiful trails to explore in this nature reserve, which is home to much wildlife including deer, bats and birds.
