I am a Walker, in my early 50s, based near Thirsk.

My Message: I'm in the process of trying to form a congenial small group of people (not always easy) who love walking and who would like to meet up for a day's walking on a regular basis, or possibly walk over several days once we get to know each other.

I've recently passed my Silver NNAS (National Navigation Award Scheme) and am already putting it into practice, but at the moment I tend to walk alone - but not through choice. Another plan is to walk the Coast to Coast with a few others next year.

However, I am not a "peak bagger" as my idea of a great walk is not being with hoards of people on a conveyor belt belting up the highest peak and back down again in the fastest time possible. I enjoy walks that take in a variety of scenery and away from the crowds.

So if you're interested I'd love to hear from you.

I would like to meet a walking companion male or female that likes visiting the tops of hills. When I go walking I usually walk a circular route of any wear between 7 and 15 miles !
Sometimes after a long hard walk i like a pub dinner and a pint !

I am a Walker, in my early 50s, based near Carlisle.

My Message: I live close to the Lake District and I want to get back out and enjoy the area again. It is always fun to meet new people and it would be good to make new friends whilst doing something I enjoy. My two Alsatians are elderly now and can no longer keep me company but they have done in the past. I presently work shifts as a healthcare assistant and support worker and because of that I can be free during the week or at weekends. I have a sense of humour and a wide range of interests and I am very much a people person. I bike to work and as a lot of my work is physical and I like to think I am fairly fit. Its also nice to enjoy a relaxing drink at the end of a walk. Please get in touch if you have any walks you would like to share. I have put my walks as local to me as I do not have a car at the moment not because I don't want to go anywhere else.

My Message: Haven't been walking or camping much recently, so need to sort that out! I love travel and the outdoors and also photography, live music, creative writing and other things that remind me I'm alive and not to waste a moment.

At the moment I am able to walk long winding tracks more than uphill adventures but have a few munros under my belt. Would be happy to find interesting lads and lassies to meander with.

I manage a charity project and I'm divorced. I love Wainrights books and ramblings.

I am a Walker, in my mid 30s, based near Northampton.

My Message: Hi,
I'm 35 and looking to find a male friend for some walks, aged between 30-45. I'm a big fan of the lake district, although Yorkshire and the Peak District are good too, and a little closer.
Ideally looking to meet for short local walks first and then with the possibility of walking weekends 'up north' or Wales... or wherever there is nice countryside.
I love the challenge of getting up a hill/mountain, and would like to meet someone like minded (who does't just want to peak-bag, or do 15 miles route marches or rock climbing!), with a good beer in the pub after, and a meal.
I'm also keen on photography, but try not to stop every five minutes as you'd never get anywhere !
I'd also like to explore walks abroad, having been to the Dolomites and Switzerland, which are beautiful areas, but need the right company. (Again, I'm not into anything too adventurous, just similar grade walks to those in the lakes!)
Please message me.
Coral

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

My Message: Hi. I am relatively new to this walking malarky so I am looking for strolling partners, male and female, who are a similar age to myself (hopefully I will be able to keep up that way!) and who can introduce me gently into this wonderful pastime. Unfortunately my friends haven't fallen in love with hill walking as I have so this seemed the perfect way to meet and make new friends.
I am a single straight female who works far too hard during the week so I need to escape my cell (pet name for my office incase you were getting worried!) at the weekends and there is no better way of doing that than exploring this beautiful country whether that be walking or cycling.
The Lake District has to be my all time favourite but I am happy to be proven otherwise! I am easy company and would appreciate buddies with a crazy sense of humour and zest for life that would match my own! Looking for walks that range from 5-10 miles although happy to do more if necessary and like most on here I enjoy the mandatory pit stop at a pub or tea room! If you can identify with any of the above it would be lovely to hear from you.

I am a Walker, in my early 50s, based near Porthmadog.

My Message: Hi. I’m a 50 year old single male who’s keen on walking/rambling, who delights in the natural scenery in its ever-changing moods, along with wildlife and landmarks; generally anything I may encounter along the way. Having a curious mind, I tend to finish a new walk with more questions than when I started, to which end I’ll endeavour to find answers to.

Hoping to meet a likeminded female with whom I can share and enjoy my walks (Don’t mind males or groups either). Who I can also share and impart knowledge learnt while walking, as well as any other topic, and likewise gain information from.

All my walks to date have been in North Wales, mainly in the stunning Snowdonia area, along beaches and sea cliffs, rivers and valleys, hills and quieter mountains. I’d like to share these sights with those who are interested. I’d also like to expand my range and venture further afield and discover other areas of the UK.

Would be delighted to hear from you. Dave.

I am a Walker, in my late 30s, based near Chulmleigh.

My Message: Hi, I'm James from North Devon. Walking has really helped me to recover my strength and stamina after a long period of illness. Dartmoor is right on my doorstep and I have been making a determined effort this year to get to know it better. Wild camping on the moor has a deeply therapeutic effect on me - underlining the importance of keeping things simple and in balance.

I usually walk alone, my friends are usually busy, and I think some company would be nice. Dartmoor is a wonderful playground that I would never tire of but I am happy to try anywhere in the UK that I can reach by train. I have a spare tent that I can lend out if you are not sure whether camping is your thing but would like to give it a go without spending lots of money. Looking forward to hearing from you.

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

My Message: Hi 52. Looking initially to do some of the national trails - ideally 3 - over the summer of this year (2014). Open to other suggestions, but the plan is Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast, then Cotswolds and finally either the Hadrian's Wall walk, or Pembrokeshire Coast Path.

A lot of history - but that is the problem - it is history! So fitness has slid away, and I am looking to put that right as gently as possible. Add in a splash of photography for my own travelogue, and basically you have it. Gentle walks over some distance (anticipating camping as a default) with frequent photo stops.
