Pete August 13, 2022

I am looking for a Garmin smart watch to track my indoor pool swimming and weekly hikes (17km-20km). I have bought the Swim2 on the recommendation of the retailer, but now find that it doesn't appear to cover hiking (I suppose I should have guessed that, with it being called the Swim 2!). Can anyone advise me which model, in the same price bracket, that I should purchase.
