Tucked away down on the promenade just beyond the no-cycling sign. Access via the boat slip ramp. You need to know it's there as you won't go past it otherwise.

Rolling road that offers great views eastwards across the marsh flats and channels around the Naze.

The road is a dead end but the lakeside view is very nice. Worth it if you want somewhere scenic to stop although not always very tranquil in the summer with the watersports centre, neighbouring campsite and playground.

Alton Water is a popular place for outdoor activity, but really exists as a water source for the people of Ipswich. The dam wall blocks the River Gripping and the water treatment works below the dam can treat up to 10 million imperial gallons of water a day!
