### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2026-06-20*

Walkhighlands has been my go to resource for walks for many years, and it’s hands down my favourite corner of the internet. I so appreciate the effort that goes into maintaining and developing it. This new iteration of the app looks to be an excellent improvement on the earlier version. Thank you!

**Developer response:** Many thanks for taking the time leave your review - it’s much appreciated. I hope we can continue to help you find more good walks.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-06-16*

This app is amazing. It helped us make a recent trip to Scotland something really special. Without this app, we would have certainly gotten lost on a few trails. It also helped us find some great walks nearby when we were looking to fill some time. Great map even for trails that aren’t “official” walks. Cannot say enough good about it.

**Developer response:** Thanks all much for the kind review - and haste ye back!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-06-15*

Such a great app for finding walks, using the big map or guides for munros. The Munro pin map is awesome

**Developer response:** Thanks very much for the review - and good luck for all your future Munro exploits.

### 5/5 — Munro bagging

*2026-06-15*

Been amazing for me each and every time I use it..touching 50% Munro’s bagged now and has never let me down

**Developer response:** Big thanks for the review - good luck for the second half of your round!

### 5/5 — Glen Affric

*2026-06-15*

Climbed a Corbett yesterday using your app would never have found the route on our own and the GPS was sooo helpful. Thank you

**Developer response:** Many thanks for taking the time to leave the lovely review - I hope you enjoy many more Corbetts :)

### 5/5 — Outstanding

*2026-06-14*

Couldn’t complete the Munros without it! Very helpful and very well laid out

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your kind review. Hope you enjoy those Munros… or Corbetts if you are moving on :-)

### 5/5 — Go to app

*2026-06-12*

Have used this app for years and it is really good for all sorts if walks and info

**Developer response:** That’s great to hear - hope you get many more years of great walks!

### 5/5 — The GOAT of walking/hiking apps

*2026-06-06*

Brilliant app 10/10

**Developer response:** Thanks so much - you’ve made us feel a bit sheepish!

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2026-06-05*

Love this app for planning and recording walks in Scotland.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the review - keep enjoying those walks!

### 5/5 — Never get lost ever again

*2026-06-03*

The maps are wonderful to show you exactly where you are each time you press the triangular symbol. Download the maps need for next day then feel secure of always knowing exactly where you are. This provides a potentially life saving public service

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your review - glad the app helps you find your way.

### 5/5 — Perfection 😊

*2026-05-31*

I’ve never reviewed an app before but the Walk Highlands deserves it.  Walk Highlands has been first port of call for me since the website launched some 15 or years ago.  An app just makes it easier on today’s technology.  

I use the app almost daily and the amount of information and the level of detail is pretty much perfection 😊

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for such a lovely review - it's great to hear how the app helps you enjoy the outdoors.

### 5/5 — So so good

*2026-05-31*

I love this app, and all of the free routes it provides. It’s such a valuable resource for the casual walker, munroist and long distance walker. Even for a leg stretcher on a long journey. If only other countries had this up to date app!

**Developer response:** Many thanks for your lovely review - hope you keep enjoying those Munros and long distance walks!

### 5/5 — Excellent app for an excellent website

*2026-05-31*

Anyone who has used walkhighlands before will feel instantly at home in the new app. Very useful!

**Developer response:** Many thanks - hope the app helps you enjoy many excellent walks.

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2026-05-30*

Brilliant app, and a great upgrade on the first effort. The GPS works seamlessly for anywhere now (even away from the downloaded routes), loading is quicker and they’ve even fixed the homepage so you don’t have to scroll down to load the map mid-walk. How is this app (and site) still free and still being improved, when every other corner of the internet is being turned to sludge? Being independently owned / run by one couple is probably a big part of the success.

**Developer response:** Many thanks for the lovely review - it’s much appreciated. Keep enjoying those hills!

### 5/5 — Brilliant combination of info and inspiration!

*2026-08-20*

Such an excellent app - a huge number of great walks and you can download walks so they’re available offline (map and text), track your progress on the route so you know you’ve not strayed plus there’s info about loads of interesting features on the route.  A real gem!

**Developer response:** Thanks for your very kind review - so glad you find the app useful :-)

### 5/5 — Brilliant app

*2026-08-16*

Honestly having done some hikes around the world, having such a detailed app like this is a complete Godsend.

**Developer response:** Many thanks for your review - it's much appreciated. We've spent quite a while doing walks overseas and would have liked to have a Walkhighlands over there too :)

### 5/5 — Favourite walking app

*2026-08-10*

Use most weeks to plan walks! Great that I can download the maps for free and I like the difficulty, bog factor and descriptions so I know what to expect!

**Developer response:** Many thanks for your kind review, so glad you like the app. Keep on walking - and watching out for those bogs :-)

### 5/5 — Lifesaver

*2026-08-07*

WH is the best!!

**Developer response:** It’s wonderful to read your lovely review. Hope the app can continue to help you find and enjoy great walks.

### 5/5 — Super useful

*2026-07-31*

Definitely download this app if you’ll be doing any hiking in Scotland.  Great for both planning and navigation.

**Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to post such a lovely review. Happy walking!

### 5/5 — Excellent inspiration

*2026-07-29*

The information given in this app is a must for anyone hill-walking in Scotland!

**Developer response:** Thanks very much for your review - hope you have more happy days climbing those hills!

### 5/5 — Great Scottish walking app

*2026-07-06*

Highly recommend- it’s a curated walking collection and has excellent real walkers reviews and updates. Completely free - doesn’t try to upsell anything. Covers all areas of Scotland. You can download walks, os maps, gps tracking. Much more reliable than commercial walking apps because of active walkers involvement. Very grateful to the developers (charitable organisation ). If only every country had a walking resource of this quality.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your lovely review, we really appreciate it. Hope you enjoy many happy walks :-)

### 5/5 — Mr

*2026-06-27*

Great app. The searchbar has recently stopped working, other than that it’s great

**Developer response:** Many thanks for your kind review. We’ve just launched an updated version with a Google search box back again - you try updating via the App Store.
If you still have a problem email us on editor@walkhighlands.co.uk

### 5/5 — Navigating the Scottish Highlands

*2026-06-22*

The best of the best. I live in the US and Walkhighlands has everything you need. No need to look elsewhere

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your review. Hope you enjoy more future trips to Scotland.

### 5/5 — App

*2026-06-20*

Love the app. But I would like distances between each step included. I think it would benefit those of us who find it difficult to follow instructions!

**Developer response:** Many thanks for your review and feedback - it's much appreciated! If it helps, when you look at the route map with your current position marked, the numbers on the map mark each kilometre from the start of the walk.   We are slowly adding more distances in the text where helpful (e.g. turn left after 300m) but it will take quite a few years to get round all the walks with that info. If you check the map with your location, hopefully that will help in the meantime.
