Walk Description:

A beautiful walk in a variety of woods and heathland typical of the New Forest.

Partly on wide trails or smaller paths muddy after rain.

Leaving the High Corner Inn we cross over Broomy Plain and enter Holly Hatch inclosure.

Past Holly Hatch Cottage a walk beside the stream then up hill towards Fritham Plain.

Into Stoden inclosure before a walk down Ragged Boys hill.

From here into Broomy Inclosure, past Splash bridge, returning through woodland back to the pub.

The walk is around 6 miles and will take about 2.5 hours approx to allow plenty of time to enjoy the

scenery.

Please park in the top carpark (1) belonging to the pub. Option to go in for drinks/snacks after walk.

Allow time for driving through the New forest, the animals can be unwilling to move.

(From the Red Shoot Inn go uphill then a short way on the flat before the left hand turn onto the gravel

track, past the High Corner forest parking, then downhill to the car park just above the High Corner Inn)

Phone signal at the pub is patchy. Toilets inside.

(Ground nesting birds in season means any dogs are on leads.) 

Parts of the walk are exposed, please bring a hat and plenty of water. Be tick aware and please use

sunscreen.

On a Wed there is a 25% discount on food with the Butcombe app. Please download before arriving as

the signal is too poor at the pub. Or, give your loyalty club number to the bar staff.

The pub has a new bar area for walkers which has a selection of sandwiches, sausage rolls and cake,

along with coffee.etc 

Location Notes:

Please park in the top carpark at the High Corner inn. Allow plenty of time to cross the forest. The sign off the road to the pub is very small. Follow the road down hill until you see the pub.
