Foremark Reservoir is an ideal place for all the family to walk, relax and enjoy the peace and quiet.

There is a play area for smaller children and a wild play area for them to 'play around nature' and there's even some sandy beaches that you can reach with a little detour from our route!

This walk from the reservoir car park is ideal for all of the family (and your dog) - it is short, has no big hills to climb and follows easy woodland paths.

For refreshments there are plenty of places to sit and enjoy your own picnics (no BBQ's though), or there is a cafe which is open Fri-Sun. Alternatively, there is the Chequers Inn at the nearby village of Ticknall.

This Foremark Reservoir walk starts at coordinates: 52.816705, -1.505574
