Questions people ask

Yes. 1,040 or more of the walks within 5 km of the middle of Bromsgrove are walks beside water, 68% of the 1,520 or more we measured there. The app shows them by name once you have an account, checked against what your dog finds hard.
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.
Can my dog swim there?
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.
