Hiking
Black Lake is a tranquil nature reserve within Delamere Forest. The reserve is home to many species of dragonfly and damselfly, as well as unusual mosses. The lake is a small pool and bog lying in a natural depression in the land. It is a wonderful place to stop for a moment and contemplate your surroundings.

Worth the little detour off the main paths - been coming to Delamere for many years walking and running before spotting this little "lake" as a highlight on the Komoot map.
