Fun walking facts from our year in review

2019 was a very exciting year for Go Jauntly! We launched on Android, added new features like audio guides and offline trails, collaborated with some amazing partners, and of course, added incredible new jaunts all across the UK and beyond thanks to our amazing community. As we forge ahead into a new decade, we are taking a moment to reflect on the past year and the amazing things we achieved together with your help.

1. Our app was downloaded over 60,000 times. An increase of 40% over the previous year. Hooray!

2. Over 500 new routes were added in locations around the globe by ourselves and you lovely lot, including some as far as France, Italy and Sri Lanka!

3. If you were to walk every single route in the app at an average pace it would take you more than 80 days. Anybody fancy a new challenge?

4. By our rough calculation around 1,000,000 calories were burnt by our jaunters in 2019. 

5. By walking instead of driving our routes, 6,000 kg of CO2 is saved. Woot!!
