  • Use the quarter mile markers to measure your walk or run around the lake.
  • Use the information points and rubbing boards to discover more about the nature surrounding you.
  • Take a break picnic by the lakeside. We have accessible picnic benches so that everyone can join in.
  • There are dozens of species of birds around including Snipe after which one of our meadows is named. How many can you spot?
  • If you love what you find and want to help look after it, why not offer to volunteer?

Please note 

Due to the nature of the lake and its unpredictable depths and instability of the banks, Swimming/paddling is not permitted anywhere in the lake.
