countryside to the north of the town. The current track is just under 3 miles (4.8km) long. The

commons and downland in which you can roam freely. There are plenty of waymarked trails, including

Whipsnade Zoo
- the vast area of breathtaking parkland and state of the art enclosures is a spectacular
location for its animal residents, who bask in stunning vistas across the Bedfordshire
countryside. Visitors to the zoo can enjoy it too, and because the sprawling family attraction
is so extensive (at 600 acres), most visitors to the family attraction drive around it!
