Gog Magog Hills

[2] The better-preserved hill fort known as the Wandlebury Ring, which is now situated in a public park, had several concentric ditches and earthen walls, which were kept in place by wooden palisades.

In 1989 the Magog Trust, a charity and registered company created for the purpose, bought 163.5 acres (66.2 ha) of former farmland surrounding Little Trees Hill for £327,100 so that it could be returned to chalk grassland and opened to the public.

[7] A 5-mile running race involving two laps of the reserve and a shorter fun-run have helped raise funds for the local primary school for several years.

[8] The Cambridge University Hare and Hounds running club have also used Magog Down as the venue for their tri-annual hosting of the RAF Match.

Both Magog Down and Wandlebury Country Park are popular places to visit for fresh air and recreation on the edge of Cambridge.

In February 2016 the Greater Cambridge City Deal (since renamed the Greater Cambridge Partnership[11]) published early-stage "concepts" for improved transport links along the A1307, which included the idea of a new, off-road busway apparently straight across the Gog Magog Hills, possibly through or adjacent to the edge of Magog Down.

[13] The preferred options following the 2016 consultation were stated to include an in-bound (towards Cambridge) bus lane alongside the A1307, however by October 2017 the proposal for an off-road busway was back on the agenda again.
