About

Tring Park is an important ecological area and one of the Woodland Trust’s most exciting and diverse sites, spanning over 250 acres. Just a short walk from the centre of Tring, you can discover wonderful wildflowers, historic features (The Obelisk and The Summer House), and open vistas with stunning views.

Take a walk with your dog among open parkland, mixed woodland and rare chalk grassland across the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Tring Park was once part of a larger estate, which included Tring Park Mansion, originally designed by Sir Christopher Wren in 1685. The mansion is now a performing arts school and can be seen from the park over the A41.

Dog Access and Rules

Cows and sheep graze year-round, so you must keep your dog under close control and on a lead to avoid disturbing the livestock.

There is Battcock’s Wood, where livestock can’t access, and so it is safe for off-lead walks.

Things To See & Do

Tring Park is great for dog walking, with a mix of open grassland, rolling hills, and woodland paths.
