Dist:0.4km<br/>One of the principal attractions at Rother Valley Country Park is the cable skiing system set up in a cordoned off area at the southern end of the large lake. Participants are pulled around on a continuous cable and there can be up to eight people using it at once. This person is using a wakeboard - by far the most common type of equipment - which allows the more confident individuals to perform spectacular acrobatics with varying degrees of success. The building in the background houses changing rooms, a pro's shop and a bar.
