The New Forest is best known for its 5,000 native ponies. They’ve been around for 2,000 years and are free to roam at will, so you’ll likely spot them everywhere. The ponies are adorable but don’t feed them – it’s against the by-laws.
Bliss for walkers
One of the best ways to explore the New Forest is on foot, or book a guided walk with a local expert. Check out Fuzzacker Guided Walks, New Forest Navigation and New Forest Photo Treks.
