We visited for the Parkrun, which was cancelled whilst a walkway is fixed (some more weeks, I would expect). You can still access the lake along the disused railway line for part of the way - but not a good surface for running. Then there is a path around the lake with views across the lake and stretches through the woods, lovely, if rather muddy in places following wet weather. In total about 9 km around. Hope to do this again in the Spring with the promise of wild daffodils and perhaps a red squirrel.
