With our annual barbecue in the afternoon, why not join the morning walk in the Forest to sharpen the appetite? The walk takes in much of the beautiful scenery of Dibden Bottom, a highly popular area for walking. Starting at Marchwood Inclosure, we go south-west past Rushbush Pond before heading east to Dibden Inclosure and then north back to the start.
The walk crosses open heathland and passes through coniferous and deciduous woodlands. The rolling terrain in the middle part of the walk provides the platform for some of the finest views in the New Forest. The area will prove to be a hidden gem for those who haven't visited the area previously.
