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

My Message: Hello... I spend most of my working life stuck behind a desk and am acutely aware that I need to take more excercise and get fitter. Walking alone doesn't appeal and most of my friends have other commitments, so would like to make new friends to join up with and go walking. the Malverns are local to me but am happy to explore new areas. Am available mainly at weekends. Please get in touch if you are also looking for a walking pal or feel I could fit in with existing friends. Regards Tina

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

My Message: I am 43 and live near Dartford in Kent. I do have a car and am very happy to travel.

I love the great outdoors and enjoy nothing better than a walk in the countryside. I have a large circle of friends who I go away to Derbyshire and North Wales with (new friends always welcome). However as most of them now have children I miss being able to go for a long walk on a Saturday or Sunday when the sun is shining - and having a long cool beer at the end of it.

My Message: Hello.

I live in Market Weighton which is between York and Beverley/Hull.

I am a female in her late 50s looking for people to help me get back on track and get back into an exercise routine. I think it is time I stopped making excuses and take the bull by the horns.

Ideally, I am looking to meet local people who are prepared to start with easy to moderate walks with a view to increasing the distance and level of the walks over a period of time.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

My Message: Hi to All,
Looking to join up with fellow walkers, particularly in the Lake District, but would consider the Highlands, Wales, Yorkshire Dales and North Yorks moors too. Like to keep a steady pace (no route marching!) but also like to savour the views and have a cuppa! Great to finish in a tea shop or pub and sample the local ale.
Quite chatty but can be quiet too... especially on the uphills! If you fancy meeting up, drop me a line.

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

My Message: Slim, fit, cheerful and unconventional Worcestershire man with old cottage on Malvern Hills (ideal walking centre) seeks female companion for all kinds of low-budget walking adventures, long or short, anywhere in UK, from wild camping or bothying in the moors and mountains to finding geocaches along shores, canals and riverside paths. Possible cycle trips too (I have a Brompton folding bike). I'm a life member of both English Heritage and the YHA. Also like NT properties, morris dancing, ceilidhs, railways, board games and card games. Modest income from my publications about castles, churches, abbeys, ancient monuments and walking trails. My interests complement each other without dividing lines between work and leisure activities. Good navigator with 1:50, 000 maps for almost all of Britain Isles. National Trails still to do include Cotswold Way, South Downs Way, Pennine Bridleway and southern section of SW coast path. I’m a carnivore, don’t drink much alcohol, don’t smoke and don’t own a car. I’m not tall, and not a particularly fast walker or cyclist.
August 2012 update: companion(s) wanted for backpacking trips Sept-Oct 2012 to include Northumbrian coastal castles, central section of Offa's Dyke Path, & maybe Devon & Dorset.

I am a Walker, in my mid 60s, based near Wigan.

Love walking in the Lakes in particular. I have done many low level walks there up to about 7 miles. Ending the walk with a glass of something, preferably red, is always good as is a meal when time allows. Know retired so able to walk any day Monday to Saturday and some Sundays.
Look forward to hearing from like minded people.
Best wishes,
Dave.

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

My Message: Hi, I'm Chris a single male who walks mostly around the South West. Quantocks, Exmoor and Dartmoor being favourites with a trip to Lake District most every year. I am looking to try new and familiar ventures ideally with a friendly female companion. I am active with a walking based youth group and get lots of male company this time of year whilst training but miss female banter. I am reasonably fit and well behaved and can do a good impression of a dog panting whilst slogging up hills laden with kit. I'm happy walking with dogs but don't have one myself. Navigation is good but happy to share. I like gentle strolls with coffee or a pub in mind to hiking with overnight gear.

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

My Message: Hi I'm Malcolm and I'm looking for a female companion for hill and mountain walks and other outdoor activities
I enjoy dabbling at all sorts of outdoor things - mountains, skiing, sailing, canoeing, etc but master of none!

Some activities restricted due to a prolapsed disc a few years ago that niggles away - but still like having a go at most things - even if it may hurt the next day!

Have done quite a lot in Wales and the Lakes, and some in Scotland and abroad in the past – Europe, Malaysia and Nepal
Completed all the Nuttall’s 2000ft mtns last year - not in one go! - although I’m not a serial peak bagger but it’s taken me to different areas of England and Wales
I'm interested in historic sites like forts, castles and industrial remains, and basic geology.

I organize a group of friends for local evening walks in north-west Shropshire twice a week through the summer and occasional weekend activities, and get pleasure from helping friends try new things and getting enjoyment
It can be fun doing things on your own but it can be more fun when you do them with others! Think this is true of trips and activities but also of the everyday things in life.
Have been a bit manic with work over autumn and winter and not got out much so bit unfit.
Wanting to get back out and enjoy the hills - but would like some company to share them with.

My Message: Hi, used to be a keen walker up until a year ago. I want to put on my boots and get back out there, have done plenty of walking in the Yorkshire Dales/Lake District. I am pretty fit and attend a gym regularly. My limit at the mo is about 15 miles but shorter distances are ok. I would like to do the 3 peaks challenge(Yorks) in time. I have walked a lot on my own, but its much more enjoyable with other people.... fair weather or not i don't mind. Don't mind having a quiet drink, in a quiet pub on the way either. Work full time but usually free at weekends.

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

My Message: Hi
I'm i guess a keen walker, did the Pennine Way last August, which was amazing, looking to do something similar this summer too.
I Spend much of my walking time in the lakes, dales, or peaks or snowdonia, but really want to take a couple of weekends in scotland to experience some of the walking on offer up there.
I like a little bit of scrambling and would like to develop this. I've done strinding and sharp edge and loved them both (sharp i found a bit more exposed at one point!)
I have also some wild camping which i really want to do some more of, i think it would be more fun with company mind you!
I pretty limited to weekends, evenings i guess and friday afternoons. Drop me a line with your ideas, I'm thinking of the Ravenber Way this summer, 200 miles from Ravensglass to Berwick, not as far as the Pennine Way this time, fancy joining me?!

Mark
