Castle Mound offers stunning panoramic views over the surrounding countryside. From the top of this ancient motte-and-bailey fortification, you can see the town of Dunstable itself, as well as the rolling hills and farmlands that stretch out into the distance. On a clear day the view can reach as far as the Chiltern Hills to the northwest, providing a beautiful mix of urban and rural landscapes.

There is an old chalk pit here in the Sundon Hills. The added bonuses are a delightful steep set of stairs/steps in the hillside and a well-placed bench available to enjoy the view of the hills from.

Church of St Margaret is a Grade I listed building. It is over 1,000 years old, founded in 1145. The present building has its beginnings in the 14th and 15th centuries. As in many such places, though, different parts of the church remain from different times. For instance, the font is from mid-13th century, the west tower is from the 14th century, and the chancel was rebuilt in the late 19th century. It's a beautiful old church, and the churchyard is quite pretty to sit in as well. Much recommended!

there 4 different walks

Good changes in terrain for a short walk.

Nice scenic spot, great shelter from the sun on a hot day!

A bit tricky to find, but is exactly where the blue line of the creek starts.

Grassy chalky bridleway, well worth it for the views of Dunstable Downs to the South and open countryside to the North. Chalk can be slippy when wet so take care on the descent if ground it wet

A bridleway on a hill that's about half a mile long.

Awesome forest trail leading away from Barton Road with some steps. Opens up into fields further south with lots of signs, so easy to navigate around.

The Smithcombe, Sharpenhoe and Sundon Hills cover 86 hectares in Bedfordshire. With thick forests, gentle slopes and wildflowers, the area is a lovely place to cycle, hike and enjoy a picnic. The hills make up part of the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and are considered a Site of Special Scientific Interest. Here, you will find plenty of interesting plants and wildlife. As the hills are made mostly of unimproved chalk grassland, there are lots of rare species. Look out for rabbits too!
