Description
If you find yourself staying in Oakham and looking for a reasonably flat walk to see the picturesque Rutland Water, then this is for you. It stays on pavements and hard footpaths so should never get muddy.

We also have two fabulous hotels in the town; The Wisteria and The George.
The Route
Head out of Oakham on Stamford Road, taking time to admire the first posthumous statue of Queen Elizabeth II at the round about.
At the next roundabout, go straight over, staying on Stamford Road on southern the pavement.
Follow the path, right, away from the road, and continue on the new road towards Hambleton.
Before you reach the village, take the footpath left and follow the route around the peninsular.
Re-join the Oakham Road, turning left, and retrace your route back into Oakham.
