Come along for a gentle stroll with us, enjoying the lake's views and wildlife.

All our discovery stolls are accessible, sticking to hard surfaced paths and are dementia friendly. Our ranger will take you on a short stroll, talking about the park on the way with plenty of opportunities to stop, rest and to look at and discuss points of interest. It's a fantastic way to get out and discover the parks with other people.

Please book in advance online or by calling us on 01908 255379

Meet at the car park on Bradwell Road, just off H4 Dansteed Way

    Lodge Lake is one of the city's ‘on-line’ balancing lakes. It was created in 1981 by building a dam across the Loughton Brook. This holds back water as flow rates in the brook increase, helping to prevent flooding in downstream areas. The lake is perfect for a short outing - a gentle walk around the lake edge takes about 30 minutes - with plenty of interest on and off the water year-round.

    Refreshments
    None on site; the nearest shops are located in Great Holm about five minutes’ walk to the west. A Chinese restaurant, the Kam Tong Garden, overlooks the lake.
