Perrywood and New Copse Loop

A 3.8-mile circular walk starting and ending at The Pig in Brockenhurst. The terrain is even and mostly flat, taking in mixed forest, open heath and the quiet lanes around Perrywood Ironshill and New Copse Inclosure. Suitable for confident on-lead walking with stock and ponies grazing freely in the open forest.
The Pig publishes a downloadable PDF map of the route. Park at The Pig if you have a booking, or use one of the Forestry England car parks nearby. Combine the walk with lunch on the terrace at The Pig.
