Waterloo Lake

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Waterloo Lake covers 33 acres (13.3 hectres) and is a popular place for rowers, with a relative new rowing club that was first started in 2006. There is a walking trail that takes in a delightfully scenic 5 kilometre (approximately 3.1 miles) loop of the park and both Waterloo Lake and Upper Lake.

View of the Fountain at Upper Lake, Roundhay Park

Highlight • Viewpoint

Upper Lake is the smaller of the two lakes in this park. There is a well-maintained walking path around both lakes, so you can create a double loop and see all the park has to offer. The route is relatively flat, step-free and welcomes dog walkers.
