I am a Walker, in my early 40s, based near Gillingham.

My Message: Hi, I am at a loose end and looking for walking companions. I have just restarted walking (UK wide) after a break of a few years. My partner has his own interests which take him away most of the time. I am relatively fit and I am happy strolling around locally or on a national path, peak bagging etc. I work shifts so I am available at weekends and during the week and have my own transport so I am willing to travel.
I am just looking for chatty, fun company of any sex, standard or age.

I am a Walker, in my early 40s, based near Shipley.

My Message: Hi all.. New to the site and looking to arrange regular walks at weekends and potentially walking holidays etc I have not been walking for a while, used to wander around the cairngorms as a youth but since moving to england I havent really had the time until now to do much. Im raring to go now though and need to get a few walks organised to ease myself back in gently. Not looking for anything too taxing to start with but hope to build up to do something more adventurous in due course

Forest walking has always been my favourite and am looking forward to exploring the options for that down here.. I am more than happy to travel anywhere really and to try any kind of walking in any environment.

My main reason for getting into walking is to get back to a good level of fitness, allied to that of course I love being in the outdoors and meeting new people.. hence the reason for joining up here

I would consider myself to be fun and spontaneous with a desire to explore and go on little adventures.. come and say hello and hopefully we can organise something

I am a Walker, in my late 40s, based near Blackpool.

My Message: Hi, I am a cheerful, happy go lucky, adventurous guy who has always had a facination for the outdoors-walking, camping, caving etc and a love of travel. I am planning to walk some long distance paths such as the Lancashire Coastal Way, Ribble Way or discuss any path you are interested in. I intend to video the walk and it would be fantastic to meet someone who would enjoy sharing the challenge. Probably do the walk in stages over a period of time. I am happy to begin with easy sections of about 5 miles enjoying the walk, increasing the distance as we get fitter. I am free most days and look forward to hearing from anyone who would like to join me in planning and doing some great walks. I am open to any other ideas and love country pubs.

I am a Walker, in my mid 40s, based near Hartlepool.

My Message: Having recently retired from the Armed Forces I'm keen to find new friends who are interested in the more 'extreme' and 'difficult' hikes throughout the UK. Obviously being a bloke I'd enjoy the company of a fit and experienced female, but actually would prefer anyone who enjoys the wild outdoors and being way off the beaten track. I prefer extended hikes and spending time under the stars. I have all the requisite gear, GPS tech tent, maps, rations, EPIRB, etc etc. I also have over twenty years military experience so I'm used to 'roughing it'.

Hope to hear from someone soon.

I am a Walker, in my mid 50s, based near Leicester.

My Message: I now feel like I have more spare time to do the Wainwrights and Munroes. It would be great if someone would like to take up this challenge with me.

I live in the Midlands of England so someone local would be good but I would be pleased to meet up at the walk.

I was thinking of spending a couple of days in the Lakes District for the Wainwrights ie Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. For Scotland I think that I would need to go for about 5 - 7 days at a time.

I do not walk at a very fast pace.

I am a Walker, in my late 50s, based near Hinckley.

My Message: Hi I am Ellen, widowed and live near Hinckley (Leicestershire) although Scotland is my native home. I am looking to make new friends and perhaps find someone special who has a similar outlook on life to me. I enjoy all sorts of walking and have just completed the West Highland Way climbing Ben Nevis as a finale. I have recently been trekking in Nepal in the Annapurna Range BUT I am equally happy exploring the hidden parts of the UK.

My other interests are running, keeping fit, gardening and most things involving the outdoor life. I also enjoy travel to far flung places.

I have a strong sense of adventure and look forward to hearing from anyone who finds my profile interesting!!

My Message: Hi,

I have recently moved to Dundee and am keen to make the most of opportunities to get out and find out more about the area. I have done a lot of hill walking in the past but not much recently so not very confident about navigation and hill walking by myself. I walk a lot by the coast in Angus and north Fife but would like to venture into the Angus glens and Sidlaws. I have a dog so would like to meet dog friendly walking companions, we are used to walking 4-5 hours at the weekend.

I live near Portree in the Isle of Skye, but have no-one to walk with. It's usually because all my friends are working when I want to get out and about. I just don't do enough walking, and finding someone to go with would give me the incentive to get out more and enjoy the countryside and the fresh air.

I am a Walker, in my mid 50s, based near Farnham.

My Message: Hi, I'm a 54 year old female based near Farnham, looking for male/female company for more regular walking in Hampshire, Surrey, Sussex, Dorest. Local walking groups are rather large and I prefer more one to one conversation, probably a faster pace too. I tend to use pre planned walks as I'm not the best map reader - happy to learn from an expert though! Available to walk at least every other weekend, and occasionally in the week, especially during summer months while the evenings are lighter. I'm reasonably fit (Gym and cycle) and happy to walk 8-10 miles or more. Love walking holidays uk or abroad, walked Hadrian's Wall two years ago. Would love to meet more liked minded people to share the beauty of uk countryside. Pub stops are equally important but I'm not adverse to the odd picnic! I look forward to hearing from you!
