How to use a Garmin Fenix 7 GPS watch - walk and talk

In this video we go for a walk and talk with a Gamin Fenix 7 Sapphire Solar GPS watch and look at how to use a Garmin Fenix 7.

On the 33 mile walk we look at pre walk planning, transferring a .gpx file onto a Garmin Fenix watch and then we set off along St Cuthbert's Way.
