Draycote Water Country Park
The Draycote Water Maprun and Permanent Orienteering courses are at Draycote Water Country Park. The Courses use the easy, runnable terrain of the Country Park with a flat grassy area leading to a small hill. The longer Courses use part of the perimeter of the reservoir. There is a very good cafe and restaurant on-site and lots of other water sports-based activities. There is also a running trail around the reservoir.
