Walk Orlando beyond the theme parks
Most people walk miles in Orlando without noticing, inside the theme parks. FOG starts the map dark and clears only where you walk, so a park day draws a dense knot, and the lakes downtown give you something quieter to fill.
Downtown and its lakes
Downtown Orlando is built around Lake Eola, with its fountain, swan boats and a loop path of under a mile. Thornton Park, next to it, has brick streets and old bungalows, and Mills 50 to the north is full of Vietnamese and other restaurants.
Orlando is a city of lakes, and many neighbourhoods are arranged around one. Winter Park, a separate town just north, has Park Avenue with its shops, Central Park and a brick main street.
Theme park miles
A full day in one of the big theme parks often adds up to many miles of walking. On the map it shows as a dense, curly patch, because the paths loop around and around. Several days across the resort areas make some of the most tangled shapes you will ever draw.
For a longer straight walk, the Cady Way Trail and the Orlando Urban Trail link neighbourhoods north and east of downtown.
Heat
Summer is hot, humid and stormy in the afternoons. Walk early, carry water and duck into shade. Winter is mild and the best time for long outdoor walks.
Orlando spreads across a huge area, so the city percentage stays low, but the parks and downtown lakes produce some of the most interesting shapes on the map.
Share the shape you walked
After a proper walk FOG can offer a walk card: the shape of the route you just covered in Orlando, ready to post as a square, a story or the bare shape. The lifetime card shows the area you have unfogged, the distance travelled and how much of the city you have lit.
It all runs on your phone with no account and no cloud. Choose miles in Settings, pick a fog colour (Midnight, Abyss, Violet, Ember or Slate) and a density, and walk. Exploring is free, and one purchase of FOG Unlimited opens every rank, every path and Google Timeline and GPX import.
