Stunning views. This is a shared use tarmacked path for walkers and cyclists and can be busy with walkers waking along the ridge. On a busy day it can be worth taking the rougher a bridleway a little down the ridge.

Quite a tough climb up to the Downs, but well worth it when you reach the top!

Love the Dunstable Downs. Fantastic views and I have always found the staff at the cafe at the top very friendly. They make a fantastic cup of tea and the food is decent and reasonably priced. There is also a useful outside tap to replenish water bottles. One of my favourite stops mid ride 🚴
