Burley Hill, New Forest

The worn path leads up from Church Moor to Castle Hill Lane north of Coffins Holms (the wooded area on top of the hill). There is an interesting series of transitions with increasing altitude - from heather, to gorse and bracken, to coniferous woodland - presumably something to do with changes in the underlying soils.
