There are now a number of "pathways of desire" in Ampfield Wood which tak you off the main paths to somewhere quieter and more secretive.
Start either at the main gateway from Jermyns Lane or further up in the verge parking area.
1.
2.
About 20m up the main track, take the narrow path on the right into the trees.

5. When the path meets the next track, take the narrow path straight ahead and follow it as it loops through the silver birch trees.
6. Turn right onto the track at the end and follow the main trackway.
Some way down the track is a V shaped entrance to a small path through the trees on the left. Take this.
7. Enjoy the piney smell of the western hemlock trees

When the path through the trees meets the main track, turn left and continue straight until the stile.
9. Cross the stile and turn left, following the boundary of Hillier's Gardens.
