Have you ever wondered how long it would take you to walk to Mordor? Well, thanks to this Lord of the Rings walking app called Walk To Mordor, you can find out.
Walking To Mordor
For most of us, exercising is a chore. In fact, for me, it’s probably last on my list of things to do. Unfortunately, I’ve just never felt motivated to do so. Until now. As a huge fan of The Lord of the Rings, I’ve always wondered if I could manage the journey myself – after all, I should fare better than a hobbit, right?
Well, I shouldn’t speak so quickly. It turns out that Frodo and Sam walked a whopping 2,765.6 kilometres (1,718.5 miles). And that’s no small feat (excuse the pun).
While I might not have Samwise Gamgee by my side to attempt the distance myself, a new app called Walk to Mordor will assist me in going the distance.
The App
Designed by Matt Beckett, the new app (which is still in its early stages) is just what many of us fans need to motivate us to exercise a little more. “Level up your exercise by tracking the distance you walk/run/bike/etc along the path Samwise Gamgee and Frodo Baggins took to Mordor in Lord of the Rings. Relive the fantasy while getting or staying fit! Add friends who also use the app to see their progress, comment on each other’s achievements, and help keep motivation high,” Walk to Mordor‘s description explains.
So basically, all it does is allow you to add your distance travelled in the app and show your progress in your quest to destroy the One Ring.
It’s Not A Short Journey

Of course, as you can imagine, this is not a small task and certainly not one for fans who aren’t dedicated to walking the path. It’s most likely to take you years to complete the walk to Mordor.
If this sounds like it was made for you, and you don’t need the eagles, then head over to the Apple App Store and download the Lord of the Rings walking app.
“Come, Mr. Frodo!” he cried. “I can’t carry it for you, but I can carry you.”
Walk To Mordor Removed – Use Fantasy Hike

Unfortunately, it looks like the Walk to Mordor app has been removed from Google Play and the Apple App Store. The good news is that there is an alternate option. Introducing the Fantasy Hike app, a fitness application that combines physical activity tracking with a virtual adventure experience. Read the description below:
Get motivated to walk! Be the first to Mount Fire! Fantasy Hike is a beautiful walking tracker for Fantasy nerds and everyone who loves adventure. Start your quest today. Every step you take will let you progress through a beautiful fantasy adventure, from your comfy halfling hole all the way to Mount Fire. Compete with your friends and see their progress in the fantasy world and on the map.
Like the Walk to Mordor app, Fantasy Hike allows users to take virtual hikes through famous fantasy landscapes, including J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit.
If you’re looking for motivation to exercise, this app is perfect for you. Find it on the App Store or Google Play Store.
