Frensham Little Pond is a glorious place to hike. It is surrounded by pine trees and sandy hills so makes the perfect location for a longer jaunt taking in the local area or a hike round the pond is under 3km so is perfect for families with children or for a shorter, largely flat, hike. There is some sand and it can be quite rooty by the car park.
There as been a lake here since the 13th century when the Bishop of Winchester decreed a dam be built. The resulting pond provided fish for when he was staying at nearby Farnham Castle.

Frensham Little Pond is more tranquil and offers a greater variety of walks and scenery than its nearby neighbour the Frensham Great Pond. Although the circular walk around the Little Pond can become a little busy at weekends there are plenty of other quieter paths to explore!
