The largest man-made lake in western Europe, Rutland Water has something for everyone - walking, cycling, sailing, and excellent picnic facilities.
On this attractive 3,100 acre reservoir you can try energetic sports such as windsurfing, rock-climbing or canoeing, hire a dinghy, bicycle or fishing boat or just relax by the water and watch the action around the 25 mile shoreline. The reservoir has an international reputation for providing a balance of sport, leisure and wildlife conservation and offers everyone the opportunity to try something new.
