About

Ringwood South lies on the western edge of the New Forest National Park, characterised by open heathland and woodland. The area transitions from residential streets directly into this protected landscape, where free-roaming ponies and cattle are a common sight along the fringes. The terrain here is largely flat, dominated by gorse, bracken, and stands of pine, creating a distinct mosaic of habitats.

A specific network of gravel tracks and footpaths, like those leading towards the Ober Water stream, provides direct access for walking and cycling into the forest interior. The presence of a large garden centre and a riding school on the outskirts underscores the area's practical connection to the rural environment, blending local commerce with the immediate natural surroundings.
