Find New Walking & Hiking Friends & Companions and Walking Groups - The Message Board

I am a Walker, in my late 50s, based near Penrith hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi,

I live on the fringe of the Lake District and enjoy walking most weekends and occasional evenings, especially when the sun is out and it seems a travesty to remain indoors. I'm a third of the way through completing the Wainwrights, although enjoy low-level walking as much as the heights.

Most of my friends are more into sailing or shopping than walking so I'm looking for people who enjoy getting out into the spectacular Lakes.

I love to discover new places to eat and drink, and am passionate about wild swimming.

Mark

A bit more about me:

When it comes to Scrambling & Edges I'm OK with the occasional edge or scramble but don't go looking for it. I'm happy to walk in all weathers - sunshine, snow, hail, wind & rain - bring it on. I'm not bothered about dogs one way or the other. I'd say my map reading & navigation skills are pretty good. I can drive and have a car.

I am also interested in:

• Peak Bagging - where the aim is to climb all the hills or mountains on a particular list such as 'bagging' all the Wainwrights or Munros;

Important: For the avoidence of doubt I am definitely not looking for anything other than someone to go walking with.

I am a Walker, in my early 40s, based near Preston hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi,
I'm Catherine, 42 from Preston. I have done quite a lot of walking, mainly in the Lakes and North Wales but other areas too.I would like to do more in Scotland. I have also done some treks abroad. I have previously walked a lot with my parents but they are getting past the long and high stuff now. Also I met a great walking partner on here about 10 years ago but she has moved abroad for work! I'm now struggling to get out walking as I don't want to go by myself. I love anything outdoors, pretty much any weather. I love camping and a good pint after a walk. I'm looking for people in 30's/40's who would like to go on day walks to begin with to see how we get on. Anyway, drop me a line if you'd like to make contact and get out walking. Thanks

I am a Walker, in my mid 60s, based near Stockport hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hello ladies and gents. I am hoping to meet new friends, male or female, to accompany me on walks, long or short, in the wonderful British countryside. I enjoy walking locally, in the Peak District, but also love the Lakes, Dales and parts of Scotland and Wales. My favourite walks will usually involve a stop or two at a cafe or pub for rest and refreshments. I have completed many long distance walks and also run and cycle regularly. If anybody would like to share my company please get in touch.

I am a Walker, in my mid 60s, based near Bath hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: I love walking and want people to go walking and to socialise with. If we can get a good weather day and a view, all the better. I'd be happy to meet up with men or women for a day's walk, anytime soon. Also happy to join a group walk. At least it's something we can still do at this time.
I've walked the whole of the SWCP, circuit of the Isle of Wight, the South Downs Way and the Cotswold Way. I love walking in the Lake District and would love to do the Coast to Coast. Am also trying to the Wessex Ridgeway in single day trips from home. But I also love a blow on the Marlborough Downs or just an amble along the canal. Tea or a pub meal at the end is a bonus.
I'm retired and don't have any regular commitments except Wednesday evenings at the moment. I play tennis but don't want to appear super fit, just normal for a walker in her 60's! Am happy to travel to meet up with someone and hope it might be you.

I am a Walker, in my early 50s, based near Cambridgeshire hoping to meet just Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: I live in Cambridgeshire and have a deep love for walking and hiking. The last long distance l did was Glen Affic in Scotland. However, l like short walks as much as long hikes and to enjoy my walk, stopping to take in the scenery and enjoying a good chat or just appreciating the silence together.
My schedule is quite free so l can do a mixture of week days and weekends. I also drive, so travelling is no problem.
By nature l am a bubbly, outgoing person with an introvert side. Looking to make some new female walking buddies. I look forward to hearing from you.

My Message: Hi, I love the outdoors and recently bought all the kit and caboodle to go wild camping but fear crept in and decided not to go alone just yet.. I'll give most things a go and love trying new things. I'd love to find someone to hike and maybe wild camp. I'd not say no to exploring more urban locations too. We've lost so much time this last year, we have lots to catch up with!

I am a Walker, in my mid 50s, based near Lake District hoping to meet just Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hello!

Currently I'm on a mission to bag all of the Wainwrights. Did a lot of hiking in Europe and participating in races like the Harz Mountains 100km race when I was younger, and a lot fitter! I suppose I'm trying to make up for lost time as there was a time when walking to the pub was a challenge. No longer drink (but will have a 0% beer at the end of a long walk!), Vegan for 10 years. Mainly been doing low level walks in the peak district over the last few years along with Mam Tor, Edale, Kinder Scout etc but now concentrating on Wainwrights. I'm quite happy walking on my own most of the time but it would be good to walk in a group, or with other hikers who had a similar outlook on life. My ultimate aim is to be fitter at 60 than I was at 30!! So if you fancy joining me say hello :)

My Message: Just rediscovering my love of walking.
As a single man with a campervan (that doesn't sound in the slightest bit dodgy does it) I love the tranquility of being out in the countryside or on the coast with my muppet dog but I'm getting bored with my own company and would like to find local people to enjoy the outdoors with.
As lockdown comes to an end im looking forward to getting back out hopefully in the sunshine but think I am going to have to work on my fitness.

I am a Walker, in my early 50s, based near Leicester hoping to meet just Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Completely new to the board, but hey everyone has to start somewhere! Love walking/hiking obviously, but would love to think that I could share this with someone. I'm a loyal caring and down to earth guy who loves the Yorkshire Dales, Lakes and Peak District. Hoping you like these as well. Reasonably fit and regularly doing 6-8 miles walks each week, but interested in longer hikes. Happy to travel if you are a little further afield. Teach at a local uni (but not a serious academic at all - I teach surveying!). Enjoy my photography, although I do less now.
Anyway, hoping that someone on here might be interested in catching up, so please drop me a message if you'd like to.
Many Thanks
Jim

I am a Walker, in my early 30s, based near Selby hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hey, I'm very much a novice walker but thoroughly enjoy it! My current fitness levels allow me to stroll for about 5 miles although I'm hoping that I can improve this with lots of walks with a great companion:) I do have muscular dystrophy which means I may find it quite painful at times but having somebody next to me would distract me. I have a great sense of humour and I love bird watching so I'll be dragging my binoculars with me. I work during the week but free at weekends and also depending on how close we are, would love to walk early in the morning or late evenings on weekdays. I have my own car so willing to travel. Also partial to pub grub when the pubs are open! Don't be shy and say hi!

My Message: Hello I have been walking mostly in the north west and Wales.
I enjoy being up and out early especially on a Sunday morning and in pretty much any weather conditions.
Before lockdown I completed the 1st section of the trans pennine trail from southport to hadfield in 4 days, I'm hoping to complete the hadfield to hornsea section when things return to some normality. In the meantime I am doing regular 15 to 20 mile walks around my own area mostly on off road pathways so I'm looking to get to know anyone who would be interested in joining me.

I am a Walker, in my late 20s, based near Salisbury hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Would love to find more friends with mutual interests. Any size, shape, colour, background, just hopefully good company and a lover of a good view :)
Friendship and fun but nothing serious.

Happy to do shorter local walks or all day trips further afield. I can comfortably walk 10-13 miles in a day along coast paths or forests but would gladly walk further with willing company! Can drive but to be honest I will avoid it when I can. Beyond useless with or without a map!

My favourite places so far are the Jurassic Coast, Pembrokeshire Coast, Savernake Forest, and Waterfall Country. Hoping for the opportunity to make it up a mountain this year!
Also enjoy casual cycling and swimming, and baking.

My professional background is in the performing arts and I still write and direct plays locally.

My Preferred Walk Grades*: 3:4:5:6:7:

My Preferred Walk Areas:

A bit more about me:

When it comes to Scrambling & Edges I'm OK with the occasional edge or scramble but don't go looking for it. I'm happy to walk in most weathers but do not like snow and ice. I'm not bothered about dogs one way or the other. I'd say my map reading & navigation skills are pretty good. I can drive and have a car.

I am also interested in:

• Long Distance Path Walking - Multi-day walks like The Pennine Way, Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk;

I am not actively looking for anyone other than a new walking companion but if that right person came along . . .

I am a Walker, in my mid 40s, based near Bingley hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi all,
My name is Bry, looking primarily for walking partner(s) in the Yorkshire area but am also mobile and with a keen desire to explore new areas once the current regulations permit this.
I am physically in reasonable shape, ex military (Royal Navy) and currently work at sea in the commercial Geoscience sector, so geophysical / geotechnical seabed surveys for the oil and gas, wind and cable industries. This means I am away for a few weeks at a time, but when not at sea have complete freedom. I am currently single with no ties, and try and spend as much time as possible in the hills. Currently restricted to the moors around Ilkley due to national constraints, but love driving to the Dales for longer walks. I consider myself of above average fitness for my age, but always room for improvement. Would not be adverse to overnight trips or expeditions, have a love of exploration that won't seem to go away. I am fortunate to be well travelled, have done hikes in Antarctica, Falklands and South America amongst others but don't let that put you off.
Laid back, articulate and confident. Will walk with anyone of any ability for companionship, would not rule out anything more if there was any chemistry but not looking for that to be a defining reason for being on here.
Sky is the limit, so please get in touch if you want to know more, chat or maybe arrange a meet. I consider myself socially responsible, so will need to be within current guidelines for meeting until things change. Current situation wont last forever!

A bit more about me:

When it comes to Scrambling & Edges I'm OK with the occasional edge or scramble but don't go looking for it. I'm happy to walk in all weathers - sunshine, snow, hail, wind & rain - bring it on. I'm not bothered about dogs one way or the other. To be honest, my map reading & navigation skills are a bit averagely average. I can drive and have a car.

I am also interested in:

• Camping on Campsites - Camping where there is a shop, toilets, showers & possibly a pub;
• Wild Camping - Camping out in the wilds well away from anyone & any facilities;
• Peak Bagging - where the aim is to climb all the hills or mountains on a particular list such as 'bagging' all the Wainwrights or Munros;
• Long Distance Path Walking - Multi-day walks like The Pennine Way, Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk;
• Back Packing - Multi-day walks carrying all your gear & wild camping;
• Road Cycling

I am a Walker, in my late 50s, based near Liverpool hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi I'm Elaine. I live in Liverpool and enjoy mountain walking in The Lakes, Snowdonia and Scotland. I've done some European mountain walking including the Mont Blanc trek which was more challenging than I thought it was going to be. I have enjoyed years of solo mountain walking but in recent years I have started walking in groups which has been fun and tends to make walking more memorable.I'm fit, happy and healthy and pretty easy going with other easy going people.I love walking with experienced walkers who either have excellent knowledge of an area or good map reading navigational skills..I'm currently working from home and tend to go walking at weekends to the Lakes, Snowdonia, yorkshire. Managed 4 days in the Lakes before we were all put into lockdown..discovered a fabulous low level circular route around Great Langdale and Little Langdale.
I'm looking to meet and walk with experienced mountain walkers, people or a person who is/are fun, easy going, with a bit of a sense of adventure. I'm single and it would be amazing to meet Mr right for me but if that doesn't happen I will gladly settle and be thankful for making new walking friends.

I am a Walker, in my mid 40s, based near Hove hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi folks, I haven't been as proactive in getting out and walking in the last few years as much as I would have liked to. My aim is to change al of that and I would like to meet likeminded people to enjoy walks with.
I don't mind where I walk and would like to be introduced to some new places to explore.
I am fairly fit and used to run Marathons, but my knees won't take that level of punishment anymore but I can walk all day long.
I work during the week so preferably i'd like to meet up for weekend walks.
Hopefully i'll hear from someone shortly!

I am a Walker, in my early 60s, based near Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: I am looking for walking friends to do weekday or weekend walks of 10-20 miles with in West Yorkshire or an hour or two's drive away - the Lakes or Peak District are areas i want to get to know better but they are probably weekend trips for me. I enjoy walking in easily accessible or remoter areas.

Currently i try to get out 2-3 times a week. After a year or two though i am getting a bit bored with my own company! Last year I did the Yorkshire 3 Peaks, and Pennine Way during lockdown and post lockdown,

I am a semi retired education consultant. Pretty fit, with ok map/compass skills and very much looking forward to hearing from you.

I am a Walker, in my late 60s, based near West Yorkshire hoping to meet just Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: I have always had a deep feeling of spiritual fulfilment after, and for example, a walk in The Lake District, or a walk along a beautiful beach somewhere. Years ago I lived and worked in the Lakes but have somehow lost my contact with that place. Subsequent domiciles have included The Hebrides, Dartmoor, Snowdonia, North Downs, and now West Yorkshire.
Guess I'm not a gear freak or a competitive walker, my main aspiration is oneness with nature.
My preferences are walking just by myself or equally with just one other person.
Reasonable travel is okay but I would have a priority on walks available close to me ( appropriate at this time of restrictions, but maybe when it's all sorted, a wonderful celebratory party walk??).
Reasonably fit and healthy and an ideal sort of walk for me would be in the range of 5 - 12 miles.
Can be a good conversationalist and a mindful/soulful quiet walking buddy.
Friday - Sunday are my available days.

My Message: Hi. I am 55 years old, 5'5" and from Manchester looking for a female walking partner. Love being outdoors and enjoy walking in the Lakes, Lancashire, Dales, Peak District and further afield. I walk all year round and in most weather. I have hiked a few Munros and would love to get some more under my belt if you are up for that! Just as happy to walk river banks, reservoirs etc. and like to end the day in a country pub.

I am a Walker, in my early 50s, based near North Yorks / Co Durham hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hello

Raised on the edge of the North York Moors. My walking has been hit and miss lately and I want to get out more.
I'm very at home in the Yorkshire Moors and the lakes would love to do more in snowdonia and scotland.

Recovering from major surgery so I'm trying to regain my fitness and dumping a few pounds.


Like to dabble a bit in photography as well.

I will come back and add more later...

A bit more about me:

I quite enjoy Scrambling & Edges but don't like too much exposure. With regard to the weather, this is the UK so it's going to rain sooner or later isn't it? Fine with me, I've got waterproofs. I like walking with dogs but do not have one of my own. Even if I say so myself, I consider my map reading & navigation skills to be excellent. I can drive and have a car.

I have completed the ML training but still need to back for the assessment
