The Watermead Country Park is a network of artificial lakes in the valley of the River Soar and the Grand Union Canal (old), to the north of Leicester, in Leicestershire. It runs north-south along the path of the watercourses, with Birstall to the west and Thurmaston to the east. The parks provide bird watching, fishing and watersports facilities.
This is a nice place to go for a walk or cycle on a sunny day.
