This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Nottingham chapter.

We’ve all seen the massive lake that sits at the bottom of Portland and Trent and takes up about 90% of Highfields Park, but I’m willing to bet that quite a few of us haven’t actually walked round the whole thing yet (it’s a pretty big lake to be fair). However, at the least popular end of the lake (the opposite side to the Lakeside Arts Gallery), there are these quaint stepping stones and a gorgeous waterfall (not pictured here). The stones are especially fun to skip over in the dark but I’ll advise that this is only for the completely sober adventurers out there, lest you end up startling some ducks who were minding their own business.

Her Campus wishes you the best of luck with your coursework and revision as exam season approaches, and this is a gentle reminder that we have a beautiful campus to explore as a break between essays!

Sarah Holmes

Nottingham

Sarah is currently a 4th year student at the University of Nottingham, studying Biochemistry and Biological Chemistry. As a photography intern for HC Nottingham, she now has an excuse for all the snaps she takes while out and about exploring the city. In addition to this, she is also a copy editor (mostly because she's one of those annoying gals who likes to correct you). In between adventures, she can often be found either: cuddled up with her two extremely fluffy labradoodle pups Sherlock and Watson; singing loudly in her student flat; reading books about bad-ass women of the past; fretting about whether her fringe is straight or trying not to burn something in the kitchen.

Naomi would love a career in journalism or marketing but for now she spends her time beauty blogging, attempting to master the delicate art of Pinterest, being an all-black-outfit aficionado, wasting time on Buzzfeed, going places, taking pictures and staying groovy.
