Ober Corner is the most enchanting part of the New Forest I have found so far. Here the Ober Water meanders through the trees, past wildflowers and ponies and on to a bridge, where it becomes the Lymington River.
Pond Dipping and Paddling Finding the Bridge The walk takes about fifteen to twenty minutes. Finding the Car Park You will pass Beechern Wood Car Park and Aldridge Hill camp site on the way. Deep Water 
This bridge is a picturesque spot to splash around the river, try your luck at pond dipping,
tackle some log bridges or stop and have a picnic. 
To find the bridge, follow the stony path from the car park, which will lead you past heathland, into the woods and then to the bridge. 
To find the Ober Corner car park, use SO42 7QD and follow the road all the way to the end. 
Note that the brook by the car park is shallow in some places but deep in others and there are warning signs.
