Good info but needs live location
There’s loads of good info in this app, but it really suffered from not showing me where I was on the map. I don’t know the area well so finding where I was in relation to walks was hard. A spot showing my location would make it much better.
Good start but needs development
I use on an iphone and it uses apple for directions which are no where near as good as google maps so it would be nice to have the option to change.
While it lists a lot of walks, its no where near complete. It lists one for bolderwood but when there there are three other walks.
It would be nice to open the app and see the walks in a map relevant to where i am.

GPS Didn’t Work!
I finally got round to using the app having had it on my phone for a while. It’s well laid out and makes it easy to choose a walk and find it’s start point. However, the GPS never kicked in to enable me to follow the route! I ended up using my OS app to follow the route that was highlighted which was less than ideal. If the GPS issue can be resolved then this will be a superb app!

Good app
Used this earlier for a 4 hour walk across the stunning New Forest and it worked seamlessly! Really great app - would recommend
New Forest Delights
We have found the New Forest App for walks an essential element for exploring hidden gems in the New Forest that otherwise may be missed as it gives you an in depth guide with all the information you could need.
Absolutely priceless and so easy to use.
Thank you.

Beautiful walking ideas
Some lovely ideas for walks for newcomers to the area.
It’s useful and free
Downloaded the app and started using it straight away. It located several gems in the area that I’d have otherwise been oblivious to. I’ve found it a use for both planning and navigation
The New Forest
We love walking in the forest . Such a variety of wonderful trees Beautiful scenery love seeing the ponies. Always try to do at least a six mile walk
and we are in our seventies but feel so much better after and I’m sure our working cocker spaniel Harry does too.

It’s alright, could be improved
Used this app on our trip to the new forest. Helped us choose a walk. Would’ve been better if there was pictures of the walk and you could do directions in app or via google maps not only on Apple maps. You also can’t zoom in far enough to see what direction to go in sometimes so we got lost twice.
Brilliant!!!
We use this app all the time for our weekend dog walks! It’s absolutely amazing as well as being easy to follow the routes. 5⭐️from me and my family! Would highly recommend😆
Not sure I like this
This app is really hard to use, or maybe it’s me
No way to see the map and read the instructions

A must have
Excellent app. Just got back from a lovely long weekend in the New Forest and this app gave us the opportunity and the confidence to explore so much more than we would have done otherwise. GPS works brilliantly and the four walks we done were beautiful. I wish there were more apps like this for walks in other areas of the UK!

Some good walks
There are a lot of positives to this app - good for finding walks and ensuring you don’t get lost! We definitely wandered further than we otherwise would have.
HOWEVER some of the village walks took place on busy roads which had no footpath - this was not fun with a dog and can’t imagine a family would feel safe with younger children. It needs better specifications about where you will be walking and who it would be suitable for.
With a bit more development and more walks added it will be an indispensable app.

Fabulous walks
We used this app whilst visiting the new forest for a few days and it is amazing.
It takes you to places for beautiful walks you wouldn’t know were there.
It also puts your mind at rest that you won’t get lost.
I definitely 100% recommend this app.

Please add footpaths
I would love the ability to see all footpaths. There is no option to submit walks to be added to the list eg Wilverley Inclosure which can be accessed by those who need a better maintained path to walk on or push a pram/buggy. This could be a marvellous app if it weren’t so limited.
New Forest
This is a useful and informative tool.
Walk’s
This app is great for me as i only can get out walking now and then ,it helps me get around places new to me and my family with out having to worry about getting lost.
Everything you need to know.
This app has made my visit to the area an even greater pleasure. It has placed at my fingertips everything I needed or wanted to know.
