Aqua Glide at North Yorkshire Water Park
On land, there are a brand new climbing tower and ziplines which are a perfect dry activity for thrill seekers.
Take a leisurely stroll, jog, or cycle along our 2.5km all-terrain gravelled track with views of the beautiful natural landscape or hop on a pedalo to enjoy the views from the water! The Water Park is dog friendly, but make sure to keep them on a lead so wildlife and nesting birds aren’t disturbed.
If fishing is your sport, the Water Park has three well-stocked lakes, with specialist trout, predator and coarse lakes to choose from, within a short walk of the leisure lake.
After you’ve finished your activities you can replenish your energy at the brand-new Café @ North Yorkshire Water Park, serving everything from cakes and coffee to pizzas and burgers.
