About Ambleway
Ambleway exists for one feeling: being genuinely away. Plenty of trails are pleasant; far fewer take you somewhere the built world actually recedes. That difference is the whole point of walking, and it is what we measure.
We map the human footprint around every trail, walk each route virtually, and give every hike an from 0 to 100. The score is absolute, never graded on a curve, so a 90 means the same thing in Rhode Island as in Wyoming. Everything on the site – the map, the cards, the rankings – speaks that one scale.
