The designated swimming area and the northern end of the lake at Kirkleagh is temporarily closed to all water based activities including swimming and paddle craft. This is due to the recent significant rainfall into the catchment and resulting inflows which may affect water quality.

The closure will remain in place for the next three days and be reassessed on Thursday 5 December 2024. Please note any further significant rainfall could extend the closure period.

Thank you for your patience during this necessary closure.
