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

My Message: Hi looking for some company on walks, I don't mind walking anywhere I have a car and can travel.
Mainly weekend until the lighter nights come as I still have a couple of years to do at work.
Would be nice to have someone to talk to and maybe share a drink and meal at the end of a walk while planning the next one

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. 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. 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;
  • 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 early 60s, based near Salisbury Plain hoping to meet just Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi,
I like to think I'm still in my 30's but my knees tell me otherwise after a days walking..Ha! I enjoy picking up an OS Map and plotting a 12-15 mile circular walk using footpaths, bridleways etc. There are lots of lovely places waiting to be discovered and even better when your walking with someone to share them with. I'm hoping to meet someone that would like to have a walking companion who hopefully doesn't live to far from where I live, fit, young at heart, a good sense of humour and would like to join me in discovering more of this beautiful countryside. I'm available to walk most days as I have taken early retirement and although I do have commitments they can normally be juggled to suit. I also enjoy mountain biking, camping and currently converting a campervan for adventures further afield.

I am a Walker, in my early 60s, based near L37 North West hoping to meet just Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi my name is Tony I am still in full time work, so i want to make the most any days off. I am easy going and have a positive outlook on life, my glass isn't half full, it's over flowing! 🙂

I love being outdoors in the fresh air.

I have massively neglected my leisure time in recent years, so I'm now looking to do a bit of catching up. I am fit and have been blessed with good health.

I am told I am good company and fun to be with.
If there is a lady out there who enjoys walking/ cycling and non to heavy conversation, who just enjoys the lighter side of life, then Hi, I would love to meet up and set off walking and enjoy our great countryside and coastal paths.

My ideal walk would always end with a bite to eat and go on a twist my arm, a glass of wine, But I can also sit and have a coffee and just enjoy the views, it's just so much nicer to share them with a companion.
I would also love to venture to pastures new and get some use out of my new passport, post
lockdown of course!
Take care and hopefully speak soon 🙂

Box No: 176165

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

My Message: Hi, John here. Hoping to meet like-minded people/person to spend a few hours, or even a few days with.
I enjoy walking in any type of environment, followed by a beer or two after a good slog. I have walked in most National Parks, and walked up a few mountains. My navigational skills are above average and I always plan the route before setting off. With some notice, I am able to reach for the walking boots almost anytime.
I am more than happy to teach navigation skills to anyone.
I have no walking ambitions, I just love to get out and enjoy the view. So, if you wish to spend a couple of hours, or longer with me, please let me know.

I love the outdoors, walking, hiking, climbing, kayaking, coasteering, gorge walking.....the list goes on!
I have a campervan that I have just converted and, as I'm self-employed, I am able to go anywhere, at any time (almost). I like to get away as much as I can.
Care to join me sometime? (Obviously when the 'rona has gone!!).
Just spent 5 days in Matlock which was great. The weather not so, but I got some good walks in. It's just a shame nobody could share the enjoyment with me.

My Message: Hi,
I am looking for male and female walking friends. I live in Appleby Cumbria, so tend to walk in the Lake district and Eden valley but would be also willing to walk in other areas.
I am happy to meet to do a single fell or an all day walk doing several fells.
I do enjoy flat walks too and would be free at short notice for evening walks.
I work shifts but only part time, so that gives me time off to meet on weekdays too.

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

My Message: I'm hoping to meet a female companion to travel the world for two years plus, taking in national trails. My plan is to start Spring 2021 in the UK on the South West Coast Path, then where ever we choose, COVID permitting, hopefully moving to Europe at a later date. I've been walking in the Lake District, Scotland, Snowdonia and a section of the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path.
I'm walking some evenings(short), weekdays(medium) and weekends(longer). I am working 2-3 days a week at the moment. My interests are local history, Nature and Photography. As well as Europe I'd like to take in The Pacific Crest Trail in the USA and The Bibbulmun Trail in Australia. All this on a tight budget which I believe is achievable with the use of Workaway and Trusted house sitters.

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

My Message: Hi
Im in my 50's - fit enough to handle a good challenge walk (done the Lyke Wake a few times) - ive also walked the Coast to Coast, and would be very happy to do it again some time - but am equally as happy gently strolling through the countryside stopping at the occasional pub:)
I enjoy walking on the North Yorkshire Moors/Coast, the Peak District and the Lake District.
I have a campervan, but am not averse to something a bit more luxurious in the way of a hotel or country inn!!

Im hoping to find a likeminded Lady Walker who would like the occasional weekend away, whatever the weather. - map reading skills useful but not essential!!! If anyone would like a quiet walking and eating getaway in North Yorkshire or the Peak District over Christmas do get in touch!!

My Message: I've been walking for the past 20 years. For a long time because of work commitments and raising my children I didn't have time for long distance walking, but now I have time and am keen to do as many as I can. I'm particularly keen to do the Beacon Way (Brecon Beacons), Coast to coast, and The Two moors way, to start....But I'm open to any long distance walks. I know the days are getting shorter but I'd love to get in a few long walks before the end of the year. If interested, male or female, please contact me. Many thanks Mary

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

My Message: I like to get out in the hills as often as possible but I don't go bagging Munros just to get back and tick it off a list.
I go to enjoy the beauty of our country and take my time and breath in fresh air.
I love Caledonia, the north west highlands to me are the most beautiful place on planet earth and I've traveled extensively.
I don't go climbing or in the snow and ice anymore as I have done in the past.
I don't mind it being cold and fresh though. I always go into the mountains fully prepared, map, compass, waterproofs etc. Just common sense things because anything can happen at any time.
I have done a lot of walking in Scotland but also enjoy the lakes, and the dales etc, doesn't have to be a long or high up walk, pleasurable and fun is what it's all about to me.
Would like to meet others to enjoy a good time out and about, not just on high peaks, any walk can be a good one, it's what you make of it. Finding a nice pub at the end is a bonus too.
I'm going up to the north west highlands from 15th June for two weeks and going to tackle Slioch, An Teallach, Stac Pollaidh, Suilven amongst others. Cape Wrath too.
Before that I hope to be up in the lakes most weekends depending on the weather.

My Message: Hi, I'm looking for someone to go hiking or scrambling with in North Wales and/or the Lakes as my husband is no longer able to walk with me. I am a member of a few walking groups however with Covid these have been temporarily put on hold. I am able to walk mid-week as well as on the weekend. I'm pretty fit and like to walk at a good average pace I guess. I haven't much knowledge of the mountains or orienteering hence my trepidation about going it alone and the reason I'm looking for a walking buddy!

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

My Message: I've always loved walking but running became my sport for a large part of my life. Due to injury a couple of years ago, I'm now back walking as my main source of fitness.
I work full time during the week but try to do about an hour or two of walking most days, and I enjoy the occasional longer walk at the weekends. I'm hoping to meet someone to share my walks with, whether that be for a local evening stroll or a weekend walk up Snowdon. I borrow my friends' dogs as company on many an occasion, but having someone I can have a conversation and a bit of a laugh with is much more preferable. I've also done a bit of geo-caching, which is much more fun with the right companion. Most recently, I've walked the Maelor Way (a section at a time) and I'm part way through the Sandstone Trail. The highest mountain I've climbed is probably Tryfan. The company is more important than the challenge these days. I do have friends I can drag along, but it often involves being the third wheel... I should mention I have been told on many occasions that I walk quite fast!

My Preferred Walk Grades*: 1:2:3:4:5:

North West England; Wales;

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. 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'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:

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

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 50s, based near Gwynedd hoping to meet just Male new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi all, I'm Mark. I live in Snowdonia National Park. I have self catering holiday accommodation here so get in touch if you're looking for somewhere to stay. Having lived here for 10 years now I'm ashamed to say that there are so many local places I haven't had time to explore (long story!) so ideally looking for guys who would be happy to go for walks in this and other areas with me. I am a gentle soul, intelligent, thoughtful and really interested in people so do get in touch if you are up for sharing your map reading skills with a willing companion. I love history, archaeology, nature and my Welsh is improving, too. I garden for a living and love being outdoors.

I am a Walker, in my late 30s, based near North Wales hoping to meet just Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi, I'm Rob, I'm 38 and I like walking in North Wales but don't mind venturing further afield. I'm looking for new friends to go walking / camping with. I'm not currently looking for a relationship but I enjoy female company as long as you don't want to talk about football as I can't stand the game. I get on with people of all ages. I'm reasonably fit and up for pretty much any kind of walk. I've done Ben Nevis, Snowdon etc. so no problem with big mountains and climbed 3 volcanos a couple of years back. I work all week so weekends are better, however, I can wangle some time off in the week as I work for myself. I'm planning on doing Everest base camp next year, so need to get some miles in ;)

Any questions, just ask

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

My Message: Greetings fellow walkers *waves*
I got into walking proper about 6 years ago and never looked back! I generally walk at the weekends unless I have time off work, when I'll fit in walks more frequently, and prefer the less well known walks, loving paths that aren't so obvious on the ground.
I go to the gym a couple of times a week and I'm pretty fit so I like a nicely paced walk but also stop to look back frequently (amazing how many people miss fantastic views by not doing this) and to take photographs … I like to blog about my walks if I find them particularly interesting. Not sure many people read the blog but I find it fun to do.
I walked the Sandstone Trail a couple of years ago … 3 days walking with a couple of sleep overs at pubs. That was fun and I'd like to do similar again, probably on sections of the Coast to Coast or the Welsh Coastal Path for starters.
I visit Wales and Cumbria at least once a year so plan walks for when I go. My most walked areas are the Snowdonia National Park, the Peak District and the Yorkshire Dales. Cheshire also has some nice walks and it's not quite as flat as people would have you believe!
Be warned, I do like to chat and I have a dry sense of humour … so I will either be fun to walk with or seriously annoying depending on your outlook!
Safe walking everybody.

P.S. For the avoidance of confusion seeing as I'm looking for male & female walking companions but open for relationships should the circumstances arise, I am heterosexual so sorry guys!

My Message: Hi, I am a single Mum from Chester who has recently got into walking and exploring the local Cheshire countryside every weekend and I'm looking to find new walks to try and people to share them with. I love nature, my favourite place being the beach and the occasional wild swim if allowed. Happy to travel a bit further afield, and happy to camp.

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

My Message: I love walking, everything about it. What could be better than sitting down with a glass of wine and planning a walk.
Then there's the excitement of arriving at your walks starting point (usually a pub car park if it's a circular walk)
The anticipation as you lace up your boots and the adrenaline rush as you set off on your way. The endorphins kick in, you get warm, remove a layer ( i can never work out exactly the right clothes to walk in )
The scenery is beautiful, you catch a glimpse of a deer, a buzzard, a moth or a cowslip.
I often get lost ( Its not getting lost, its going on an adventure) i usually get muddy and sometimes i fall over.
Then there's the relief as your sore feet sense the end of the walk. A nice pint and a pack of crisps or nuts, maybe a meal by a fire.
These are all wonderful things, but so much more when shared with a like minded friend.
