About this walk

The Wilverley Inclosure Walk offers a delightful wander through the heart of the New Forest National Park, combining ease of access with a tranquil escape into nature. Situated conveniently near the A35, this well-trodden route is ideal for families, gentle strollers, and wildlife enthusiasts alike.

As you wander beneath the canopy of the Ancient and Ornamental Woods, the peaceful rustle of leaves and bird song provides a soothing backdrop. Keep your eyes open—this woodland is famous for its graceful fallow deer, often glimpsed quietly grazing or darting gracefully between the trees. The iconic New Forest ponies and free-roaming cattle add an authentic charm to your experience, lazily grazing as you pass by.

No walk around Wilverley would feel complete without pausing at the Old Station Tea House, a local favourite tucked along the route. It's a perfect spot to rest, recharge, and indulge in a well-earned slice of cake paired with a steaming cup of tea.

This gentle circuit through Wilverley Inclosure is the quintessential New Forest experience—accessible, welcoming, and beautifully peaceful.
