The Teardrop Lakes lie within the Loughton Valley Park. There are well-surfaced paths around the lakes. The range of environments means there is no access to the water’s edge in some places.

A circuit of the first three lakes, starting from the car park and using leisure routes and Redway, is almost 2km – the ideal distance for a lunchtime stroll. For those with more time, head under the road bridge into Loughton to follow the brook right up to the North Loughton Valley.

A viewpoint on the Knowlhill side of the lakes is a steep climb but offers an interesting perspective on the city’s skyline.
