Wandlebury Country Park

About this park

Wandlebury Country Park, Cambridge's oldest country park, offers 150 acres of beautiful parkland set atop the Gog Magog Hills. Visitors can explore woodland trails, meadows, and enjoy stunning views. The park also boasts an Iron Age Hill Fort and an 18th-century country estate with a walled garden, orchard, and ponds, providing a rich historical and natural experience. It's a peaceful retreat just outside the city, perfect for a long walk or a short stroll, den building, or simply appreciating nature. Dogs are very welcome at Wandlebury Country Park. While exploring the general park areas, dogs must be kept on leads to protect wildlife and grazing animals. For off-lead exercise, the park provides a dedicated fenced dog run, allowing your canine companion to stretch their legs safely. Dog waste bins are conveniently located throughout the park to encourage responsible pet ownership. The park offers a range of facilities to enhance your visit, including toilets (with disabled access), picnic benches, and over 8km of paths. Weather permitting, a pop-up café operates on specific days from April to October and during school summer holidays, offering refreshments. Other amenities include a den building area, a wildlife viewing hide, and even BBQ areas for hire. Entry to the park is free, though car parking charges apply, with members enjoying free parking. Wandlebury Country Park is easily accessible, located on the Gog Magog Hills just south of Cambridge, signposted off the A1307 (postcode CB22 3AE). Directions and further travel information can be found on their website. The park is cared for by the local charity Cambridge Past, Present & Future, and visitors are encouraged to support their work through membership, which includes benefits like free parking, or by making a donation.
