Wellesley Willow Trail runs through Lake and Canal Side, and in the future will connect all four sections of Wellesley Woodlands. To the east is the 1.1km circular Sycamore Trail through wooded areas around the large freshwater lakes at Chalk Farm, an ideal spot to stop and enjoy a picnic. A higher level route allows for some spectacular views across the lakes and provides plenty of opportunity to watch the birds in and around the water.
