Dockens Water

Our walk this morning was our longest so far this year at 14.4 miles, and saw us ranging widely across the northern part of the forest; taking in the wonders on offer we roamed through open woodlands and formal plantation, exposed plains and sheltered lowland wet heath, and of course a number of babbling brooks. The view here is from Red Shoot Plain towards Dockens Water and Ibsley Common beyond. I've not walked this way for some years; it's good walking, with fine views across the Northwest of the forest and as far as the Ridgeways of Cranborne Chase and Wiltshire.
