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.

I am a Walker, in my early 50s, based near Tucson, Az Usa.

My Message: Hello Walkers (female & male)

I'm a desert-dwelling American hoping to arrange some walks for a holiday upcoming this summer. My dates are 27 June until 13 July. The only date I'm unavailable to walk is 3 July, when I have a London meeting.

Though I have some interest in Hadrian's Wall, I am open to walking in any part of the UK to which I can take public transport or hitch a ride, and where a good pint is never far off. I'm keen to find good company and lots of 'exotic' (non-arid!) scenery.

So, if you're looking for a walking buddy, or care to be a tour-guide for a visitor, please drop me a line!

Best,

Leigh

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

My Message: Hello everyone, I have recently moved into the Shropshire area and looking to get more active with walks and hikes. I have seen and been on a few walks but would like some company to while away the hours chatting while burning up the miles. I am quite new to it all so will probably need some time to get my fitness levels up, but I am willing to put in the hours at the weekend and some evenings depending where I am with work.

Thank you for reading hope to hear back from people.

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

My Message: I live in Essex and later on this year I am doing a charity trek in Vietnam. So at the moment I am trying to get lots of walks in! Typically I walk about 10 miles but it's fairly flat where I live so I'd like to go a bit further afield and it would be good to have some company. I work part-time so sometimes walk on weekdays, sometimes weekends. I walk in Essex, but also like the South Downs as it's a bit more hilly!

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

My Message: Hi, I'm Caroline. I love the outdoor life, particularly walking in the hills. There's nothing better than reaching the top of a mountain on a crisp, sunny morning and enjoying the view. Getting there is the is the challenge! Over the years I've enjoyed walking in most of the peaks and mountains of Britain, but there are still many new routes to discover. It would be great to share the experience with a like minded male. To walk, talk and share the apres adventure. If you like the idea drop me a line.

I am a Walker, in my early 60s, based near Ipswich.

My Message: I am a 60 something chap and looking for a lady walking companion. I have plenty of free time having sold my business a few years ago. I am not a particularly experienced walker, but I am in quite reasonable condition. 5'6' and 11 stone. I genuinely love the countryside and the coast, but I am finding it rather boring walking alone. I used to work in the media, so have some good stories to tell! I enjoy country pubs and have a car, so am quite happy to walk anywhere in East Anglia to start off with. I am quite eco minded and do what I can to protect the environment. I have a modern outlook on life and love music, galleries and museums.

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

My Message: I have just taken up walking, after years of racket and other ball sports. I am looking for likeminded people who want reasonably strenuous walks (typically 10 to 20 miles at level 4) on Sundays and, on the odd occasion, weekends further afield.
For the Sunday walks logistics of getting to a starting point will probably limit me to 100 miles from home (Woodford Green, Essex), preferably a lot closer!
For weekends away I will travel pretty much anywhere.
I like to think I am fairly sociable and love to chat to people when I am walking. Don’t mind a pie and a pint at the end of a trek either.
Quite happy to organising a walk if anyone is interested in Epping Forest, Lea Valley or Essex countryside.
Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have similar interests or know of any individuals or groups already doing the same.
Regards
Chris

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

My Message: Hello there I seem to have ticked an awful lot of boxes where I would like to walk. Im not sure if it was meant to be areas where you would like to access in a weekend. If so I obviously wont be able to go to some of these (eg orkney!).
Anyway Im writing this as i hope to find more friends to go on walking trips with and maybe even walking holidays. Ive done walking hols abroad in the past but they have mainly been with companies like Exodus. I'd like to do my own trips with some like minded friends in the future.
But for now I'd just be happy to meet some people to do trips at the weekend with. Ive done quite a bit of walking with walking clubs in the past but I'd like to make it a bit more adventurous by going with friends and finding our own way.
Anyway I wont waffle on too much for now and hope to hear from someone!

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

My Message: Hi
I have recently moved south from Yorkshire and I would love to find friends (male and female) to walk with in the Kent or Greater London area. I would also like to find a walking group in the Kent area (apart from Ramblers) so if you know of any, please could you let me know. I work through the week so I would be looking to walk on a weekend. I would also like to walk with somebody who is an experienced map reader and who knows the area as unfortunately I don't! I like to walk anywhere between 8 and 15 miles depending on the time of year. I am a brisk walker and I do like some challenge.
I enjoy walking weekends so that could be something for the future.
Please get in touch if you enjoy the same. I am looking forward to making new friends down here.

Hi, I am a youthful 43 year old woman living in central London. I'm a 49/51% city/country lover and I love getting out to the countryside to walk.

I'm pretty fit, though I'd prefer to ease in a bit before starting with a 10 mile climb ! Weekends are best.

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

My Message: Hi,

I enjoy being in the great outdoors and I find walking is one way of fulfilling that pleasure. There is something very therapeutic about expending some energy walking to a summit and looking at the surrounding view whether in the Lake District or my native Bedfordshire.

It would be nice to find a female friend, living not to far away, who enjoys similar. I find walking slows down the pace of life we live at, you can have a good talk during the process and exercise with the possibility of some food and pint at the end. The British Isles has fantastic places to walk and I would love to explore more.

In my photo I am the one standing, recently taken on Scaffell Pike on our lads!!, we are all getting older, walking weekend.

Thanks for taking the time to read my message and if you would like to send me a message about communicating before having a walk that would be good. Chris

I am a Walker, in my early 60s, based near Hitchin.

My Message: Hi, I'm Ian, I live on the Herts/Beds border and like to walk mainly in surrounding counties.
I am 63, reasonably fit and like walks between 5 and 12 miles, occasionally stopping to admire scenery and take photos, and usually include a pub stop for a refreshments. Although many of my local walks are solo, I do join with a group occasionally for walking weekends further afield. I am happy to plan/navigate walks and prefer an interesting walk to a challenging one.

Early retirement is imminent and will give me the opportunity for mid-week walking as well as weekends; so if you would like some walking company and a chat along the way, please drop me a line.
