What counts as a walk with water?
One with water the map draws, such as a river, lake or canal, beside it for at least a tenth of its length. A walk that only crosses a bridge does not count.

We cannot say. We measure how much of a walk runs beside water, not whether the water is clean, deep or open for swimming. Check the signs when you get there.
