We are the South Wiltshire Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
A varied circular walk in the New Forest starting from Whitefield Moor. Tranquil streams at Ober Water and Bolderford Bridge. Ancient trees and shady woodland glades in Gritnam and Brinken Wood. Lunch at Blackwater Arboretum with its enormous redwoods and Douglas Firs on the Tall Trees trail. Returning to Whitefield Moor across classic New Forest open heathland and bog. Due to the walk crossing several streams (with foot bridges) and bog areas with raised walkways the walk may very well be wet underfoot if following a period of heavy or persistent rain. Two short sections of minor road walking. OS map OL22.
Everyone is welcome. If you would like to join this walk, please notify the walk leader or email swrsundaywalks@gmail.com.
If you would like to car share, please let the walk leader know when you book and we will hopefully be able to facilitate this.
There will be two stops during the day for coffee and lunch (please bring a picnic)
Dogs: please contact the walk leader before the walk.
