    Siblyback Lake

    Description

    Surrounded by the striking backdrop of Bodmin Moor, Siblyback Lake lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).

    There is a beautiful 5km round lake circuit, which is perfect for pushchairs, wheelchairs and bicycles. The path runs adjacent to the lake, and passes by the impressive Siblyback Dam and through woodlands. This is an idyllic location to get outdoors and breathe in the fresh air on a walk, run or cycle. Dogs are welcome on leads, so bring your four-legged friend along too!

    Pop into Olive & Co. for a delicious breakfast or lunch, a slice of cake or a lovely artisan coffee, explore the children's play area, observe the local wildlife, camp in their peaceful campsite, learn to fish, or explore the watersports on offer.
