Frogham, New Forest, 3 mile walk
Details
3 mile walk starting at Abbots Well Car Park, Abbots Well Rd, New Forest National Park, Fordingbridge, Hampshire SP6 2JD.
Please note this is updated from the original meeting point... We are NOT meeting at the Forester's Arms as they have requested we don't park in their car park. With the Forester's Arms pub on your left continue down the lane for approximately 0.3 miles and the Abbots Well gravel car park is on the left.
Taking in some of the New Forest's most beautiful scenery. Following the valley of Latchmore Brook, the walk includes pavement, gravel paths and soft green turf, with a couple of streams to cross. There is one quite steep (gravel track) hill to climb - probably about 150 meters to the top of Hampton Ridge. We will walk past the Ashley Walk Illuminated Target, which was an experimental bombing range during WWII.
Meet at 2.15 to set off at 2.30pm, walk will take approximately 2 hours.
Location: Abbots Well car park, Abbots Well Rd, New Forest National Park, Fordingbridge, Hampshire SP6 2JD

Please dress appropriately, walking boots probably a must for this. Bring snacks and water.
We can have a drink at the Forester's Arms after the walk for anyone who is interested. If we're lucky the donkeys will be in the pub garden...
Forecast seems to be fine for tomorrow
