Discover Fordingbridge: A charming New Forest gateway and riverside haven perfect for car-free exploration.
Nestled on the tranquil banks of the River Avon, Fordingbridge offers a delightful escape into Hampshire’s natural beauty, serving as the welcoming northern gateway to the New Forest. Travelling without a car here allows for truly immersive exploration, starting with the town’s most iconic feature: its magnificent seven-arched medieval bridge. Standing proudly over the water, it offers picturesque views and a sense of history.
Stroll along the riverside, soaking in the peaceful atmosphere, or venture further into the surrounding New Forest National Park. With its extensive network of walking and cycling trails, easily accessible from town, you can discover ancient woodlands and heathland where ponies and deer roam freely. Regular local bus services, like the More X3, connect you effortlessly to nearby Ringwood, and further afield to Salisbury or Bournemouth, making it simple to uncover more of this stunning region at your own relaxed pace.
