Wanderdot: Random Walks

Bored of the same three routes? Tap one button and Wanderdot picks a random spot nearby that you can actually walk to: on land, on a path or quiet street, off the motorway. Walk there with your usual maps app, see what you find, and earn a one-of-a-kind stamp in your field notebook. Unlimited, free, no coins, no account.

Spots worth walking to
- Every spot is checked on your phone before you see it. Wanderdot tries to avoid water, motorways, rail lines and land you should not wander onto, such as military, industrial, airport, school and cemetery grounds, and keeps you on your side of a border.
- Spots snap to a footpath, trail or quiet street.
- Choose how far: from 200 m to 5 km.
- Don't like it? Pick again as many times as you want. A spot comes back in seconds, or you get a clear message, never an endless spinner.

Your maps app does the directions
Open the spot in Apple Maps or Google Maps for walking directions. Wanderdot notices when you arrive while the app is open, or you can check in yourself.

A field notebook of your walks
Add up to six photos, a note and a title when you get there. Each finished walk gets its own stamp, generated just for that walk. Look back through every walk on a map, and export everything as a zip file whenever you like.

Walk smart
- A reminder on every spot to respect private property and obey signs.
- A nudge if it is getting dark or your battery is low.
- Send someone a "here's where I'm headed" message with the spot and when you expect to be back.

No coins, no account, no tracking
Every spot is free and there is no limit. There is nothing to buy, no ads and no sign-up. Location is used only while the app is open, never in the background. Your journal and photos stay on your phone, and location data is removed from your photos.

Wanderdot picks spots from map data that can be incomplete or out of date. Use your judgement, stay on public paths, respect private property and obey local signs and laws.
