The long curve of Carsington Water's dam fits well into the landscape. It was only opened as recently as 1992 and is unusual in that it is filled mainly in winter by water pumped from the river Derwent and released in summer to provide the supply for the North midlands.

Many water - sports are available including sailing, windsurfing, rafting and canoeing. There are also fishing facilities, mountain biking on a specially constructed 8 mile circuit, picnic sites, restaurants, craft shops and a Visitors Centre explaining the story of Carsington.
