Organiser's Description

The New Forest Hinton Hiking Event offers a breathtaking experience set against the stunning backdrop of the New Forest National Park. As you embark on the hike through the 15k or 10k routes, you'll be immersed in a diverse landscape of ancient woodlands, open heathland, and tranquil meadows.

The trails wind through towering trees, where sunlight filters down through the leaves, creating a serene atmosphere. You'll encounter vibrant wildflowers and ferns in the underbrush, and the gentle sounds of nature enhance the experience—think rustling leaves, birdsong, and perhaps even the distant call of wild ponies grazing nearby.

The open heathlands provide sweeping views of the surrounding countryside, showcasing the seasonal changes, from the rich greens of spring to the golden hues of autumn. As you walk, you'll feel a deep connection to this unique ecosystem, rich in wildlife and natural beauty.

Upon crossing the finish line, a sense of achievement washes over you. Each hiker is awarded a high-quality metal medal, a proud reminder of your effort amidst such enchanting scenery. You'll also receive a thoughtful finisher's gift and a refreshing drink to help you celebrate your accomplishment and recharge after the hike.

Whether you choose the 15k or 10k, the Hinton Hiking Event offers an unforgettable blend of scenic beauty and personal triumph.
