Cable Water Skiing At Rotherham Country Park

The Rother Valley Country Park is a country park in the Metropolitan Borough of Rotherham, South Yorkshire, close to Rotherham's border with Sheffield and Derbyshire. It covers 3 square kilometres (740 acres), has four artificial lakes, recreational activities and nature reserves. The majority of the park is on the site of a former quarry, with the main excavation sites filled by the artificial lakes. There is still much of the original quarry machinery below the water.

It's home to Sheffield Cable Waterski, a cable waterski system installed when the Park was originally opened to the public and it was one of the few cable waterski systems in the UK at the time. In recent years an inflatable obstacle course has been added
