To log walks on trails etc, or just one throughout the day to see number of steps and distance?

For the former, I like both Viewranger and Alltrails, allows you to search for local routes in your area with the distance and then you can follow the route on your phone. I mix and match depending upon where I am, different routes on different apps.

Those two sound good, probably more than I need.

Just interested in distance covered, idle curiosity more than anything else.

I only use 3 apps and they're all mentioned here. AllTrails, Strava (more general outdoor activity based but good for logging) and ViewRanger

Samsung phones normally have Samsung Health built in. Works as a pedometer, measures distance, calories burnt etc etc
