During the walk, I was rewarded with excellent views of Dippers feeding in the river, but imprinted on my memory will be the best view I have ever enjoyed of an otter in the wild. It was a beautiful stroll through dense woodland on the banks of the river Barle on a rare sunny summer day. I used the apps last week to record a lovely walk I completed on Exmoor, from Dulverton to Mouncey Castle and back. It is also possible to tag photographs to the route.Ī great enhancement to Strava is another app called Relive – which allows you to upload your recorded Strava routes (you can also upload from other data gatherers) to produce a snappy 3D video of your journey. Strava produces information about distance travelled, time taken, and elevation covered – all useful for geography trips. I have also found it to be a great tool to support fieldwork exercises – enabling me to record routes for students to follow, and provide interesting maps for preparation and follow up resources. Some of my cycling friends have persuaded me to make use of the excellent Strava app to record my leisurely trips through the Devon countryside.
