New forest Walk From Deerleap and so much more...


Details
Hello lovely people,
How about a gentle wander through some of the most magical corners of the New Forest? This 6-mile circular walk takes us across open heathland, along woodland tracks, and (if we’re lucky) past plenty of deer, ponies, and birdlife along the way. The best bit? You don’t need to be anything other than yourself — everyone is warmly welcome.
A little bit about the walk:
- Distance: about 6 miles
- Terrain: gentle heathland paths and woodland tracks
- Duration: roughly 3 hours
- Midway pause: a peaceful 10-minute stop to rest, enjoy a snack, and soak up the views
This is more than just a walk; it’s a chance to reconnect. With nature. With others. With yourself.
We walk at a gentle, welcoming pace—there’s no rush, no pressure, and no need to be anything other than exactly who you are.
How to join in
You can either bring £2 cash on the day or pay in advance by bank transfer to our Metro account, whatever works best for you. This small contribution helps cover the running costs so we can keep offering soul-nourishing community events.
If something comes up and you can't make it, please cancel at least 48 hours in advance so someone else can take your spot.
No one left behind
If you're not currently working or money is tight, please just message me privately. Everyone is welcome. We'll find a way that works for you.
This is all for the community
Thanks to the wonderful energy and kindness in this group (and others I run), I’m so proud to be the founder of New Forest Wellbeing CIC—a not-for-profit where every penny after costs goes straight back into creating more community-led wellbeing experiences.
I don’t take a wage from this; it’s all about giving back and supporting something meaningful.

Something magical is happening
This community is something truly special. From the laughter to the quiet moments, the walks that lift your spirit, to the connections that carry on long after we’ve left the woods or shoreline…
We’re building something that matters. A space where kindness ripples outward, where we support mental health, tackle loneliness, and make room for joy, reflection, and belonging.
With warmth,
Mark
New Forest Wellbeing CIC
