The park contains some beautiful woodland and rolling fields too, which makes it a great place to explore with your dog in tow. I first visited Hinton Ampner as a young child when living in the area.

After parking up we explored the visitor centre and then made our way into the woods behind.

Hinton Ampner

Hinton Ampner is a large estate in Hampshire with extensive parkland and woodlands. With four downloadable walks, you can explore the lovely grounds of this National Trust property, which boast some fine rides and views over neighbouring Kilmestone. The estate also has links with the Civil War as it was scene to one of the battles fought between Royalists and Parliamentarians in 1643. Here at the Hinton Ampner Estate and Gardens we love winter walks.

We have taken the best of our existing trails and added in a superb collection of walks to make it easy for you to enjoy the estate at this time of year. All you will need is a sturdy pair of boots, waterproof jacket and trousers (or just jeans, if you prefer) and an adventurous spirit to enjoy this leafy landscape. Hinton Ampner is a working estate in the heart of the South Downs National Park with acres of parkland and woods.

It is home to the Marquess and Marchioness of Cholmondeley and has been in their family since 1826. The land here has been farmed for over 1,000 years and contains many flint tools signifying that it was once a busy place for hunters, gatherers and farmers. Whether it is the unique architecture of the house, the history, or just the magnificent surrounding parkland that brings you back again and again, Hinton Ampner is a place everyone should visit at least once in their lives.

New Forest

The New Forest has been one of the most important strongholds of unspoiled nature for centuries and for this reason it was designated as a National Park in 2005.  The forest is an inspiration for the revival of Britain's self-sufficiency that today is world renowned. The National Park covers more than 5700 hectares (14,000 acres) of rough upland, largely oak and mixed woodland with many areas of hazel coppice, ancient semi-natural standing woods (ancient semi-natural woodlands) and coniferous woodland (also known as pinewoods).

I first heard of the New Forest from a blog post on Rockford Bottom, and all I knew at first was that it was in England. I think it's safe to say that most Americans know more about Europe than other places far closer to home. What I learned more about in this hike is what an interesting area the New Forest is. Despite time as a game preserve for King William II, and because the forest contains some of the best hunting in Britain, there is much of nature left in the New Forest.

The New Forest was once a royal hunting ground, and is now a specially protected area of outstanding beauty. It contains over 350 square miles (900km2) of land with heathlands, bogs, woods and ancient firs. An estimated 80,000 people come here to walk the footpaths every year – a figure that has doubled since the early 1990s. Hinton Ampner is a fine example of an early C18 landscape garden. With its beautiful views and natural beauty, the estate makes a perfect location for a walk or gentle hike.

The Vyne

The Vyne is a National Trust Property which is well worth a visit in the winter months. Many of its larger woodlands are closed during the colder weather but there are still plenty of places to go for a walk. My favourite is winter woodland trail. It's a small trail that runs around 600 meters and takes you past various habitats. I'm always on the lookout for birds and if there are any you stand a great chance of spotting them here.

The Vyne’s castle and formal gardens are famous all over the world. This was built in the 16th century and is a fantastic example of Tudor architecture. It’s surrounded by beautiful formal gardens which have been restored to their former glory and are open to the public in peak season. The woodlands at the Vyne estate stretch for hundreds of acres and conceal many surprises including a folly, a pumping station and an ice well.

The Vyne is an internationally important haven for wintering wildfowl and is home to the nationally rare Great Crested Grebe, together with the Great Northern Diver, Slavonian Grebe, Red-breasted Merganser and Black-necked Grebe. Over recent years the bittern, once extinct as a breeding bird in Hampshire, has been successfully re-introduced to the estate and the elusive Marsh Harrier is also regularly seen here. Look up, breathe in, leave behind your worries. It’s the smell of the pine forests and breezes that create a sense of calm at The Vyne gardens and Estate.

Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life with the natural world around you. Whatever your pace, there are over 80 acres to explore and a glorious variety of wildlife to discover on foot, bike or horseback. There are great walks for all abilities including the 1km valley trail, 2. 4km explore nature trail and 3. 4km forest walk. Or why not try our waterfall challenge or our adventure assault course and zip wire. There are children's play areas too for a fun family day out.
