We are the Hillingdon Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
John H.
We head away from the Downs heading towards Kensworth Church and then through the fields to the edge of Markyate where we will stop for a first half lunch. From there it's on to Studham where we stop for a second half lunch. (Please bring a packed lunch). We head on past Studham church until we reach the edge of Whipsnade where we pause for wildlife spotting. (One wallaby was sighted on the recce). Next it's the Tree Cathedral and finally we emerge out onto the Downs where we walk along the ridge and maybe we will see some gliders take off and land. Not a hilly walk, but could be very muddy in some parts.
The only loos available are at the start and end of the walk.
Chiltern Gateway Centre, Whipsnade Road, Dunstable, Bedfordshire, LU6 2GY. Car park is free for NT members. Charge for non members is £3.50, payable by cash or PaybyPhone. Cards NOT accepted. Meet by the picnic tables outside the centre which over look the Downs.
