Walk Route Description
Dave and his dog Logan (the Whippet) make a New Forest walk at Fritham. As well as some spectacular woodland scenery, we come across the site of an old Gunpowder Factory, a Roman Road, an idyllic lake and a building that looks like a bus shelter in the middle of nowhere but in fact is something completely different. Along the way we meet some New Forest Ponies and catch a "small glimpse" of some deer.

Further Information
New Forest Walking
The New Forest became a National Park in 2005, the first for many years and the first ever in South East England. Located between the urban areas of Southampton and Bournemouth it is bounded by the Solent. The National Park is dominated by open expanses of semi-natural vegetation including heathland, bogs, woodlands and streams. This environment is maintained through the grazing of thousands of New Forest ponies and cattle.
