AllClear Travel Insurance compiled a list of 242 cities worldwide using desk research, including any cities commonly considered hilly or flat.
To reveal which cities have the lowest overall elevation and smallest elevation ranges and thus are the most and least walkable, the travel insurance company analyzed data from topographic-map.com. All values were then weighted and normalized to give ‘difficulty’ scores out of 100.
