I am a Walker, in my early 50s, based near Southport.
My Message: I enjoy walking most weekends in Wales and the Lakes and the rest of the North West in summer, and further afield on holiday.
In winter I like walking abroad. Map reading is not a strong point so normally walk with groups or friends and have walked parts of several of the long distance footpaths, particularly enjoyed the Wales Coastsl path as well as quite a few Wainwrights.
I enjoy urban walks too and would like to meet someone whose map reading skills are better than mine and shares my passion for the great outdoors.
Other passions include travelling, 80s music, theatre, foreign cinema, cake, chocolate and languages.
I am based in Merseyside and happy to meet for a day walk in the area or further afield.

I am a Walker, in my late 50s, based near Windsor.
My Message: I am a straight single 57 year old male with a real passion for the great outdoors. As an experienced walker and walk leader I am quite capable of finding my way around without too many mistakes, but do sometimes miss the companionship of a like minded partner to share my enjoyment of our wonderfully scenic and diverse landscapes. A perfect opportunity to explore the mix of valleys, woods, fells and moorlands; together with all the bugs, plants, birds and animals that call them home; the nearest thing we have to natural environments. The only downside is that any walking partner would have to accept the fact that due to having had to take on the role of full time (24/7) carer for an elderly relative with dementia my trips out are at the moment limited to rather short local walks some weekdays and 2 or 3 holidays each year.

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

My Message: Hi, I'm based in Berkshire but willing to travel. I'm am interested in all sorts of walking, whether it be routes from guides or just picking up a map and heading off. Love the idea of the long distance paths, and have been working my way along the North Downs Way with a friend for a few years now - who knows we might finish this year. I started the Thames Path by accident in 2015 and have since completed approximately one third of it (Culham to Kingston) - obviously started in the middle and have been working my way backwards and forwards! I'd love to do other long distance paths such as South Downs Way, London loop, Coast to Coast and am seriously considering starting the South West Coast path this year. Happy to do them in bite sized chunks or in bigger sections. Generally most of my walking has been done solo and I'm happy with my own company, but equally like walking with others. I'd love to join up with like minded either single walkers or groups. Have been known to climb the odd mountain - Snowdon and Carauntoohil the most notable - and the Lake District is somewhere I'm keen to walk in. Look forward to hearing from any like-minded walkers.

I am a Walker, in my early 50s, based near Stourport-on-severn.

My Message: I've just come home from work, walking all day in the Worcestershire countryside in the sun with a pack of dogs, including my own. Having served my time climbing hills and mountains with groups of children in the Outdoor Education sector, I now spend my working hours walking with dogs and feel it would be good and healthy to spend my leisure time walking with adult company. About me - my name is Alison (50 next year and planning various walking trips to celebrate) and if you walk with me you walk with my Collie, Gwenon. For me its about being out there in the countryside, listening to the birds, hugging the trees, reconnecting with the natural world, catching the views as much as bagging peaks - although this is always an added bonus. I am as happy in the lowlands, in the woods, by the sea as I am navigating my way across highlands and moorland. I am a sound navigator and enjoy exploring as well as working out the maths! I enjoy exploring off the beaten track and have also been known to while away my time playing in the stream. If any of this sounds appealing and you are willing to join me being out there in the wild or not so wild, get in touch.

I am a Walker, in my early 30s, based near Birmingham.
My Message: Hi all fellow walkers! I'm a 32 year old single male looking for male or female walkers and hiking buddies to explore the local region, notably the Peak District, Parts of Wales such as the Brecon Beacons or Snowdonia and the Lakes and Beyond in the Scottish Highlands. I'm reasonably fit and active, as I run or cycle often, and have done a touch of scrambling in Wales. I'm relatively new to it all, so by no means super experienced, but I'd love to share and learn from other walkers and individuals and go and explore what the great outdoors has to offer! I can navigate ( in basic terms!) and I own a trusty walking GPS along with all mapping paraphernalia. If you'd like to meet a fun, young, fit and open minded give-it-a-go walker who will attempt anything at least once (despite my fear of heights!) then I look forward to hearing from you!

I am a Walker, in my mid 50s, based near Penrith.
My Message: Hi
I'm looking for walking companions either m/f who are interested in 'Munro bagging' primarily, so trips up to the Highlands are a plus, but I also love mountain walking in the lovely Lake District and further afield.
I have made many trips up to the Highlands now, and walked up Munros in most of the mountain ranges, and must admit am slightly addicted to them. Although always keen to reach the top I also like to stop and enjoy the wonderful scenery and wildlife too, and I sometimes stop for shots with the camera.
I enjoy camping and youth hosteling - I find it more fun but wouldn't turn down the occasional luxury of bed and breakfast accommodation too.
Am keen to meet those interested in trips to the Highlands or walks on the fells in the Lakes or trips overseas too.
I look forward to hearing from you.

I am a Walker, in my late 50s, based near Ludlow.
My Message: Hello
My name is Terri
I'm new to this site and looking for new walking friends as most of my friends have now lost motivation. I am a life long walker and cannot imagine life without walking!
I live in lovely Ludlow and know the Shropshire Hills very well. I walk often in the Peak District, the Brecon Beacons and Wales all of which are within striking distance of here. I have family in France so also walk regularly in Europe particularly in the French and Spanish Pyrennees and next year have planned to do the camino from St. Jean de Luz.
I am no longer working full time but am nowhere near ready to slow down. This means I have time to travel and enjoy new walking opportunities as well as make new friends who like me, love the great outdoors.
Please contact me if you would like to walk with me either in the UK or Europe.
Bon Voyage!
Terri

I am a Walker, in my early 60s, based near Blundeston.
My Message: Hi, I love walking about 15 miles a day while on holiday for a week and shorter ones of around 5 miles more often. I am in a carer's group being the only man and have been used to female company, {Not looking for a relationship}, my wife has been ill for 30 years and encourages me to get out and about as much as possible, as she cannot walk far any more. I have walked peak district, south and north downs ways, St ives to Penzance via Lands End, Ridgeway, Peddars way, Icknield Path and many more. Being a good map reader loosing my way very rarely happens, so if you would like to meet up for a drink in a cafe to see if we get along please message me. Andy

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

My Message: Hi I'm Terry. What a stunning 2016. Had some lovely weather this year and it stayed pretty dry down south. Had some great walks, met some lovely people and made a few more friends. My job hasn't changed and still pretty full on during the week days so its great to get out there at the weekends. Yep I still have my trusty borders (think they will out strip me as they never want to stop) I want to try to get away a few more weekends around my call outs before crimbo then start planning 2017. I live just on the London/Essex border and I have always enjoyed walking. I try to pick on different kinds of walks that range from canal walks, Kent coast line plus long/short walks in the countryside. I try to get down to Swanage, Dorset as much as I can and love walking the Purbecks/Jurassic coast. Pubs and food are great around that area. I totally understand if you don't like walking with dogs but they are good and I enjoy meeting people while out with these energetic mutts. I am single but would still love a friend to enjoy walks in various parts of this lovely country and take in the food/pubs where ever possible. I am not really into to group walking plus a lot of groups don't allow dogs. I want to get more into camping in 2017 and look forward to having some long weekends at various different areas in the UK/Wales/Scotland and hopefully return to the Lake district for some hill bagging. Have been on this site over a year now and its nice to meet like minded people. If you fancy meeting up for a day or two walking just get in touch and lets see what we can arrange. Cheers Terry

I am a Walker, in my mid 60s, based near Llandrindod Wells.
My Message: There is nothing better than for me to be out walking in the hills and mountains of Wales (home now) or Scotland (home for 6 years until 2012) with my 2 spaniels. I would prefer to be out and about, joking and laughing with close friends rather than watching mind numbing TV on my own. I'm a Yorkshire lad, so any testing peak, anywhere in the UK or Europe, I would give it my best shot. There has to be some common sense prevailing when the location is chosen, so Wales, the Peak District, Cumbria, the South West would be easier to say yes to. Wild Camping, BandB, inns with good food and ale, I'm up for all of it, provided my dogs get to come too.

I am a Walker, in my mid 40s, based near Berkhamsted.
My Message: My husband and l have always walked on and off as we lose motivation. We have restarted walking and would love to keep the momentum going. We are in our mid 40s and love each other company but we will welcome other companies in order to keep us motivated. We can easily do 8-12miles walks but happy to try to do more. We live in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire and would love to join couples, single men or women for weekend walks around the surrounding counties such as Buckinghamshire, Bedfordshire, Berkshire, London, Essex and Oxfordshire. We would love to go for some famous walks such as the Yorkshire Dales, Dartmoor.... on a long weekend trip. So, if you think we can motivate each other, please let us know.
Anjanee and Adam

I am a Walker, in my early 60s, based near West Wycombe.
My Message: Hi, I am a 62 year female, I have lived in West Wycombe for 1 year. I am a retired nurse who is looking for someone to walk with and share and enjoy the scenery and chat or not as the mood allows. I love walking and have just completed Hadrians Wall which has been a lifelong dream. I walk as fast as I can but I am no greyhound, far preferring to stop and take a photo or enjoy whatever is on view and it is always nice to have a treat at the end. I am married but my husband is not keen on walking and I feel I could be more adventurous if I were not on my own. I can walk during the week and prefer this and I'm happy to travel to other counties for day walks but I'm also keen to explore my surroundings in the Chilterns. I am reasonably fit, at least I think I am but I'm not great at scaling mountains and not overly keen on very strenuous ventures, but that said I'm willing to consider most things.

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

My Message: Hi, I just love walking, landscape, wildlife, geology, trees, plants, well everything out in the wild or countryside really. I currently live in Pembrokeshire an area I really love but I'm moving to Libanus near Brecon shortly to be nearer my three daughters and my work ( which is now house and pet sitting mostly in the southern half of England). I'm single and my job is wonderful but quite isolating so I'd like to meet someone (female) for company, conversation, laughter, ( not much laughter on your own) sharing (no sharing either) on walks, in pubs or anywhere. I'm an experienced walker and have walked over many places in Britain and Ireland, Pyrenees and Alps, I'm especially familiar with the Brecon Beacons and Pembrokeshire. My job takes me all over Southern Britain mostly but not always South of the M4 and gives me lots of opportunities to walk in some beautiful areas. I love reading, live music and theatre, real ale, cinema (but I can't seem to go on my own), travel, meeting people from other countries, single malts, laughing etc,etc.and I'd like to meet someone please.
