Popular area for kite flying and paragliding

As you turn off Dagnall Road, get into a low gear and take it easy. You don't want to be going into the red before the twisty steep bit, as it feels really narrow and if you put your foot down it might be hard to get going again.

So different to other parts of woodland nearby, and so quiet.

It's absolutely gorgeous, breath-taking, and you're sheltered from any wind and rain by the trees too.

these cedar woods are breath-taking, especially as you enter if from the east, sheltered form wind and rain with clear path through, a beautiful walk.

Breath-taking as you enter these woods from the East. Clear pathway through, not to muddy in the winter, sheltered by the trees from rain, beautiful area to walk.

The lion was carved into the hills overlooking Dunstable Downs close to Whipsnade Zoo in 1931-33. Some say it was to remind pilots not to fly too low when crossing the zoo so they didn't scare the animals, others that it was an elaborate advert. In 2017/18 the lion was refurbished with a donated 800 tonnes of chalk so now it can be appreciated from quite some distance.

Dunstable downs is a great place to bring a bike, once you have put the effort into riding up you are rewarded with great views and visitor centre where you can grab a coffee. Bridleways and tracks for those on mountain or gravel bikes and surfaced multi user path along the ridge for other bikes.

beware you brakes get very hot by the time you get to the bottom.. allow extra braking time when you come to stop at the end.
