Hiltingbury lakes is probably the best known woodland area in Chandlers Ford. The woods surround several Edwardian water gardens. They are located close to the main town centre, near Waitrose etc.
Two of these form a large ornamental lake which is a popular place to fish.
The rest are smaller and more wild, providing a wetland habitat for wildlife.
I'm very found of the woods around this smaller section as walking through them feels a bit like exploring a rain forest.
Overall the lakes is a short but rewarding walk, especially in Autumn or Spring when the trees are at their prettiest.
