Fantasy Hike

Fantasy hike is an immersive and fun way to motivate walking and build a sense of accomplishment

I like the fact you don’t need to set up an account, but could you please make it so it can either link to other apps for us non-Apple watch users - or allow for manual entry. I ‘m not getting full credit for all the steps I’m doing through the day.

It’s really, really great. Motivating, entertaining, beautifully done. But now that the ring has successfully reunited with the fires of Mount not-Doom, it’d be nice to think about expanding into other worlds. I appreciate not-LOTR is the perfect world, but perhaps a Harry Potter style journey from Kings Cross to Hogwarts or similar would work.

I have really enjoyed this app, it has taken me 18 months to complete & especially loved the notifications on my i-watch and all the milestones and LOTR theme. Have to admit I was excited to finish and disappointed with the ending. No fireworks? Eagles to the rescue or fanfare? I felt I deserved more of a celebration :)

I’m absolutely loving this app. I’m not a big exerciser and I don’t walk long distances (however much I enjoy walking) but I love the Lord of the Rings. My husband saw this app and thought it would help me keep myself motivated to get fit again after having my daughter and he was right. I love checking how far I’ve walked each day and where I am on the map. The milestones are great and the comparison with where Frodo is can be quite hilarious. It didn’t take long for him to overtake me! I’m currently projected to reach Mount Fire in two years time!! But hopefully can bring that down as my ability to walk further increases. It was really easy to set up- it seems to just use the data that your health app is already collecting. And as long you have it in your pocket you don’t need to think about turning it on to ‘log’ a walk or anything, so you don’t have to worry about forgetting to do that.

I have just finished my walk to mount fire and although it took me 1.4 years, I really enjoyed it and wish there were more! So I’m going to start it again. Thanks so much for this app!!

I’m enjoying this app so much. Please make more versions from other fantasy stories!

Always up for a challenge, and when I saw this, I knew it was something I wanted to do. As someone who works in an office, hitting the 10k target each day can be difficult, however, this app pushed me to achieve that target each day. Firstly, if you want to beat Mr Underhill, you will need to pay the £3.99 for the unlimited distance. Secondly, you will also need to switch on your paddle bonus, and lastly, average 8miles / 13km a day (if possible). A word of warning, Mr Underhill is very quick at the start but does take long breaks throughout the journey, so just keep walking and you’ll eat into his lead. Overall, it took me 170 days, starting Jan 1st and finishing June 18th.

Enjoying the app so far walked the 1.5km daily limit and if I can get my mum to agree to something my dad will pay for the unlimited distance so I hope I can finish it within three years that would be great 😂😂😂

It’s a brilliantly crafted app with great links to the books. It’s really enjoyable and I have been encouraged to walk more since I downloaded it! It would be slightly better if the amount you can walk a day was unlimited without having to pay but that is only a small fee.
