First-hand experiences
Pleasent enough walk . Some directions slightly off from the footpaths, not a huge problem. Not one to do if your craving a quiet country walk as lots of aircraft and road noise . I would say we enjoyed getting out in the countryside , probably wouldnt return as there is much nicer walks on the app, which we love having to hand .
