I am a Female Walker, in my early 70s, based near Worcestershire hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: 
Hello fellow walkers! I've always enjoyed walking - I'm energetic, a reasonable pace, whilst absorbing nature along the way suits me perfectly. I fill my weekdays, week- ends suit me well.
Due to illness and circumstances my regular walking friends are unable to join me. I'm not being adventurous or pushing myself now the days are shorter and cooler. I love all the seasons, tho' autumn's my favourite. There is a joy in being outdoors with good conversation sharing the love of nature- invigorates, whilst exchanging ideas and learning, some laughter too- would be nice to share all these delights with someone likeminded.
Anything over eight miles, would be a long walk for me, Currently my walking tends to be on the hills where I live here in Malvern.
I've come to realise without a companion to set some days with, places will remain unexplored!...

A bit more about me:

I really don't like Scrambling & Edges - they are defintely not for me. 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. Sorry, but I really do not like walking with Dogs. If pushed, I'd say my map reading & navigation skills are rather poor at best. I can drive and have a car.

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

My Message: Hi. I love been outside walking. I'm looking for some friendly people to enjoy longer day walks with,I lack motivation on my own. Sadly I have not done as much walking as I'd like, but I keep fit with swimming and Netball.
As a single mum it gets a bit tricky to do longer walks! I am free every other weekend for walks with or with out my dogs.

I am a Male 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!!

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;

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

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 Male 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.

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

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'm from Liverpool and have a great sense of humour and am very easy going and sociable.

My Message: Hi
I'm in my early 60's, reasonably fit and active, I play squash and go running a couple of times a week.I love my job as a nurse/counsellor and when I have free time I like to be outdoors. I'm as happy on long walks as I am climbing a mountain,or on the coastline. I'm not competitive these days but still want to feel a sense of achievement and stretch myself.I've explored many areas in the UK. Last year I did the Welsh 3 peaks ( over several days) with my daughter. A couple of years ago I discovered Bulgaria with some friends and am going back this year to do some walks in the Piril range.I'm looking to meet new people,for new experiences, good conversation,fun and friendship.

I am a Female 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!

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

My Message: I like walking for fitness and relaxation in the beautiful countryside of North Wales. I would like to meet a walk buddy/new friend and to be honest this is also because now I'm a pensioner my family get a bit stressed when I head off around Brenig in case I end up in a ditch and nobody knows I'm there. Ideally I'd like to walk mid-week as most of my friends are still working so I'm busy socially (in that previous non-Covid world that is) at weekends.
I've looked at Ramblers or other groups but I'd prefer to walk just with a buddy who also likes to walk at a reasonable pace. Alwen lake takes me 2 hours or Brenig 3 hours so a reasonable pace for me means 5+ km per hour on mixed terrain.
Because I'm walking for fitness I prefer to stay local rather than spend hours in the car.

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

My Message: I bought a book with a route from Penmaenmawr to Swansea Bay when I was 25, 26 years later I've yet to walk one part of that route. I've bought a few more books since then with the pages well thumbed but not put into action. I'm looking for walking groups, triples, couples, singles even stray pet dogs who fancy a slog, hike or stroll anywhere in North, Mid or South Wales. Happy with wild camping or tame pubs, just get me out please! (The lack of a photo doesn't mean I'm weird looking, just the webpage not working properly)

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

My Message: I live on Herefordshire and enjoy the outdoors. Walking gives me a sense of freedom and takes me away from all the noisy stimulus and brashness of every day life. Being in nature feeds my soul. I've done short and long distance (Camino de Santiago) walks and want to do many more. Happy to walk in most weather's providing I have the right hear. Map reading skills are averages and I work on the principle that getting lost is just a chance to re-orientate myself.
I'm happy to walk alone and quite adventurous in that regard. However, some times it would be nice to share the view and adventures with someone else and walk places I haven't been.

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 Male 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 ;)

I am a Male 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!

A bit more about me:

I can cope with a little bit of scrambling if it is short and there are no steep drops. 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. Sorry, but I really do not like walking with Dogs. 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:

• 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 Male Walker, in my late 60s, based near London hoping to meet just Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi, John here, I am a really keen walker and looking for a female walking companion to join me for walks of varying distances in the countryside around London and the South East generally including coastal walks and perhaps a trip further afield. It would be good to have a walking day our with a pub lunch and even tea to finish, I am retired and can walk mid-week as well as weekends to suit your own commitments. I do not drive but love travelling by train for walks outside London and the coast. If you are interested in walking with me at any time to suit then I would love to hear from you because on a nice day I just love to grab one of my books with walk routes and head off. I'm a volunteer lock keeper and work one day a week which I love doing. I love London's history and give guided walks and currently writing a book to include my ten favourite walks. Hope to hear from you soon!

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

My Message: Being sat at a desk most days I'm keen to get outside and enjoy the amazing scenery we have in our beautiful country. Initially day walks to improve my fitness. I work part time and do have a day off midweek so would love to get out enjoy the company of others whilst walking.
Based in the East Midlands mid week walks ideally would be within an hours drive. Weekends further a field.
Years ago used to walk with a group but it became too big for my liking.
I love being outdoors, there's nothing better that a lovely long walk and a meal afterwards. Appreciated all the more in the current Covid climate!
As my fitness improves (It's not bad but plenty of room for improvement)I love to bag a few peaks.

I am a Male 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.

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

My Message: Hi,
I am quite a sociable person but now live in a beautiful rural spot in Mid Wales where there are lots of sheep and not so many people! This brings advantages and disadvantages-so I thought popping up a message on here might be the perfect way to enjoy all the countryside advantages whilst tackling the main disadvantage head-on - ie meeting new folk :)
I have always enjoyed countryside walking and do it most days- however after an ankle injury a few years ago I can no longer do steep slopes. I work from home flexibly (even before 2020 came along!) so I could meet up most days. I have 2 affectionate and bouncy labradoodles and it would be nice to bring them along if the walk was suitable for them to be off the lead, however for cliff walks and through fields of sheep I would probably leave them at home with my teenagers.
I'm looking forward to some interesting chats :)
