Carburton Lake Car Park Limetree Ave
Free parking for Carburton Lake Country Park and activities
Carburton Lake Car Park is a free, council-managed gravel lay-by located on Limetree Avenue within Carburton Lake Country Park, serving walkers, anglers, and watersports enthusiasts. The unmarked facility accommodates approximately 50 vehicles on a first-come basis; it operates from dawn until dusk; no overnight parking. There is no lighting or CCTV; daytime visits recommended. An information board at the entrance displays park maps for the 4 km lakeside trail, details on fishing permits, and wildlife-spotting tips (e.g., great crested grebes, redsquirrels). Benches and picnic tables are positioned near the lot perimeter overlooking the eastern lake. Pedestrian paths lead directly to the main fishing platforms (0.05 km), the visitor centre (0.20 km), and the sailing club hut (0.30 km). Seasonal sailing races reduce capacity by 10; signage directs drivers to the Rushcliffe Arena overflow lot (1 km). Maintenance crews clear litter weekly and inspect the gravel surface quarterly.
