The Norwegian newspaper Hardanger Folkeblad writes:
 
"Car Walks is excellent documentation that local attractions can also be of interest to tourists as well as local inhabitants. The product is very user-friendly. The organisers want to reach out to the many tourists that want to experience more, get more out of nature than just the view from the car window."

A German newspaper writes:

 

"Wer Norwegen mit seinen Fjorden, Bergen, Gletschern und Inseln durchs Autofenster sieth, den packt wohl die Lust, einmal anzuhalten und einen Abstecher zu Fuss machen. In Hordaland, dem
"Garten Norwegens", ist das ebenso leicht getan wie gesagt. 61 Touren warten auf Autofahrer, die zum Wandern kommen."
