NEW FOREST WALK : BEAULIEU ROAD (NEW FOREST NATIONAL PARK)

Join me and my dog, Logan (the Whippet) as we continue our series of walks in the New Forest with a gentle stroll around the area at Beaulieu Road.

NB: For some reason, since this video was uploaded, the music has become slightly "out of sync" in a couple of sections. I hope that it doesn't affect your viewing of the video. It was one of my earlier videos and both the editing, production and indeed presenting was a little "rough around the edges"!

NB: Early on in the video, I meant to say that Commoners have a right to graze their animals (and not their land!) on the Forest.

As well as viewing some stunning heathland & woodland we explore the New Forest Pony Sales Yard, the site of a Charcoal Burner's Pit, the crater caused by a WWII German Parachute Mine and - right at the end - experience the famous New Forest Drift (round - up of ponies) happening right in front of us! I should point out that it is "best advice" from the New Forest Park Authorities not to be in the vicinity whilst a Drift / Pony round up is taking place but in this situation I was "under the supervision" of a couple of helpful stewards and indeed I was filming from what was deemed a "safe area" by them both.
