Rans Wood car Park is closed for resurfacing and parking is tricky so updating to start from Tilery Road Car Park, near Balmer Lawn, in Brockenhurst.
Difficulty:
The route will be predominantly on well-kept and well-trodden trails. There may be some technical features but these will be simple to negotiate. There will be some noticeable hills but nothing that will slow down your pace to a complete standstill.
Footwear:
Wet and muddy in a lot of places so more suited for Trail Shoes. You will get wet feet!
Clothing:
I suggest long sleeves and leggings, but mainly on paths so shorts sleeves and short leggings/shorts would be fine. However, due to the free roaming wildlife in the area we do have a lot of ticks so please do check once home.
New Forest Code:
Please familiarise yourself with the New Forest Code and adhere to it at all times so that we can continue to enjoy these runs together: https://www.newforestnpa.gov.uk/visiting/help-care-for-the-forest/new-forest-code/
