Canada Common Walk
This circular walk explores Canada Common and Plaitford Common in the northern section of the New Forest.
The expansive open space includes a series a footpaths with some fine views across the attractive landscape. On the common you can see ponies grazing, rhododendron bushes, gorse and the Sturtmoor pond on the western side.
There is a car park on the eastern side of the common where you can start your walk.
To continue your walk you could head south west to visit Bramble Hill and Bramshaw Wood where there's more nice trails to try.

Canada Common, New Forest. The common is heavily grazed by commoners' stock, and as a result most of the ground cover is grass rather than heather. There are occasional gorse clumps, as well as isolated pine and silver birch trees. On the eastern edge there area also rhododendron bushes, such as the one in this photo, that have spread from the gardens of properties on the edge of the Common. The brick building in the background is the Primitive Methodist Chapel (built 1901).
