The New Forest, covering an area of nearly 150 square miles, was given Royal protection in 1079 as a hunting ground for the first Norman king, William the Conqueror. Recently designated as a National Park, the New Forest is actually a mixture of woodland, heathland, open pasture and settlements. Its unique character and ecology have developed over the years through the way it has been worked, the people who live there and the animals that run free across it.



See the famous New Forest ponies and learn how the livestock and wildlife are managed by the Verderers, Agisters and Keepers. The tour will take you to some of the quieter parts of the forest, showing you the varied landscapes, pointing out places of special interest and explaining how all the different aspects of the forest work together.
