Whitings Hill Open Space is a large public open space in Chipping Barnet in the London Borough of Barnet.

It is mainly grassed with clumps of young trees, planted as part of the Watling Chase Community Forest,[1] and a few mature trees. There are good views in all directions from the top of Whitings Hill. A small stream, a tributary of Dollis Brook, flows through the site.

There is access from Shelford Road, Quinta Drive, Brett Road and Hackforth Close.
