I am a Walker, in my late 30s, based near Denbigh.

My Message: Hello,

I want to meet new friends who like walking. I have been trying to convert a few of my current ones into enjoying the pastime, unfortunately, pushing them up hills and then getting them lost in fog seems to have put the most likely off.

I used to walk quite a lot when I was younger, mainly in the Peak District and North Wales. I have recently started again, hence the miserable friends. I have an ok level of fitness and like a bit of a challenge when it comes to my choice of walk.

Look forward to hearing from you,

Jo

I am a Walker, in my late 40s, based near Newton In Furness.

My Message: I'm 47, a widow with 4 children, 2 of which are under 16. I live near to the Lake District and myself and my two youngest children spend most weekends and holidays walking the hills and fells. In the last 2 years we have managed to 'bag' ourselves 34 Wainwrights and counting.
I'm not looking for romance, but rather like minded people who enjoy walking in the beautiful countryside, preferable in the sun and with good conversation thrown in :)

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

My Message: Hi
My name is Claire and I'm looking to make new walking friends. My three teenage sons are less keen to walk with me these days and local friends are not really "walkers". I live on The Wirral and I try and walk most weekends. I don't mind travelling for a decent walk (5 miles +). I don't mind low level flat walks, or hills (preferably with the promise of a view) and am happy to do day walks in North Wales, The Peak District, Yorkshire Dales etc. My favourite place in the world is The Lakes ( I'm an exiled Cumbrian!), and have many Wainwrights under my belt. I would also be interested shorter evening walks locally. I work term time only, so I am available weekdays during school holidays. I can read a map, so I usually know roughly where I am and where I'm going!!!
I think there's nothing better than a day with my walking boots and rucksack on, in the great outdoors with the promise of a pub or tea shop at the end, if you feel that way too, please get in touch.

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

My Message: Hi
I'm Nigel (48) and I'm looking for walking companions - individuals or groups - for long or short day walks. I was lucky enough to grow up in North Wales because my parents moved up here just before I was born. And after long stints in London and elsewhere I moved back a few years ago, to a village near Llanberis. So my preferred locations are Snowdonia and the surrounding coastal regions, but I'm happy to visit other areas too - Lake District, Peak District, Brecons etc. For anyone who doesn't drive (or would rather not) I can pick you up and drop you off at railway stations/accommodation etc. Any grade including scrambling is fine for me and I'm happy to have lunch or finish the day in the cafe or pub; whatever suits. I work as a freelancer but I'm currently between contracts renovating my house. So although weekends are still best for me I can also get out during the week. Looking forward to hearing from you!

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

My Message: Hi - I am a single male walker. Aged 51, but I feel 25 still. I am very fit and love the mountains and good company. I am looking for a similar (38-55) female friend who would like to join me. I love walking, but am not obsessed by it. Walking in to a pub at the end of a long day's walk is one of life's pleasures. I enjoy the outdoors - nature, wild swimming, cooking and laughing. I am walking in Brecon this weekend - 5 6 7 June. Please contact me if you would like to meet this weekend... or any other. Thanks.

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

My Message: Hi, I moved to Scotland recently and I'm keen to explore. I've done quite a bit of cycle touring in the UK and France, and a fair amount of walking in the Lake District. I'm a car owner/driver, so I can travel around. I'm looking to meet new friends to explore this wonderful country with. I like being outdoors, I can cope with all weathers, and am happy walking and cycling. The glass of beer at the end of the day is always very welcome and I like the planning, lunch making and post walk/cycle banter.

I am a Walker, in my mid 60s, based near Warwickshire.

My Message: I have done a lot of walking over the years both in the UK and abroad and retired so lots more time available now. My local area is the Cotswolds but I often walk in Wales, Derbyshire and the Lake District. I have completed part of the South West coast path and would like to do more. I particularly enjoy walking in the hills, coastal walking and walking a reasonable distance. Although I walk with various groups of friends regularly they are not always free or inclined to walk further from home. I have only marked a few areas as I would be willing to walk almost anywhere.
I look forward to finding new companions, particularly for the SWC path.

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

My Message: Reliving my passion for walking in the country side. As I am now registerd Blind I find it's not so easy for filling my love of walking. A keen rambler for many years I have a yearn to get out and about again and take in the beautiful creation that surrounds us. I am looking to make a couple of friends to come rambling. I'm living in London and need to get out from time to time.
I thought up to about 10+ miles would be a good starting distance. I can help with some travel expenses if we need a train. I am up for a pint, or tea, or my favoured place for a break is a bite to eat in the middle of nowhere propped up against a log or wall.
If you walk with a group or by yourself it would be great to hear from you.
If you think you can assist or have any ideas, just let me know and if you need any more information about me just ask, we'll see ware it takes us. Al

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

My Message: Hi,
My name is Keith and I'm looking for a female walking companion to show me walks in the Lake District, Snowdonia and the Peak District. Ideally around 40 years old. I'm happily married so this is strictly walking. I work full time but have my own car. I've climbed Helvellyn 5 times so far this year which has been quite an experience with the snow. Did the fifth on 27/03/15. I can take holidays from work at short notice, I don't have a lot of holiday allowance but a good walk would be worth the sacrifice. I've done Great Gable, Skiddaw, Blencathra, Dale Head, Fleetworth Pike, Scafell Pike, Helvellyn and Conistan Old Man and Ben Nevis. I'm not confident at heights or on edges so haven't attempted Striding Edge. If you fancy showing me a new walk, please reply

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

My Message: Hi

Tall, active, easy going and socially confident guy looking to meet walking companions, for anything from seven to ten miles in the Peak District, Staffordshire or Shropshire.

My name is Steve and thanks for reading my message. Been trying to keep fit during the winter with Boxercise and Racketball and now ready to get on those hills especially during the week having recently taken voluntary redundancy from employment. No route marches for me but a good pace taking in the views, preferably with a coffee on the way and a pint and food at the end!!

I have walked in the Lake and Peak District conquering a few peaks on the way and have booked a weekend to climb Snowdon in June but happy to consider any.

So if you are up to meeting up, especially during the week then please get in touch.

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

My Message: Hi there,

I am 40 years of age, I love walking but haven't done any for some time. I am looking for female and male friends to have a nice walk with in and around the North West (or further afield) I am free mainly at the weekends as I have a very busy professional working life during the week.

My friends don't like walking so much and I find it really sad that they miss out on such a lot of beauty that our country and region offers. I have just come out of a relationship so I really am just looking for good company and friendship, along side some fab walking and chilling!

A little bit about me, I love to travel, I love food, I love eating out, I love having a beer and like having a few laughs along the way. I am a very considerate person and prefer smaller groups rather than big walking groups. I love walking off the beaten track and ending up in a lovely country pub for some hearty food!

I love walking in the countryside, the seaside, the lakes, canals and even urban walking. I need to get my fitness levels up again, but can walk 7 miles on the flat at the moment. I have climbed some mountains, but for me, walking is about taking in the scenery, not the bagging of peaks or getting there the quickest or doing the longest walk.

Anyway, if you are free and you want to walk some time, I'd love to meet you.

Cheers!

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

My Message: Hi I'm Dave, an active 43 yr old looking for walking/camping companions both male and female. I have been walking for quite a few years now, mainly in Northumberland, Lake District and Scotland. I am pretty well experienced and know my way around quite a few places. Working offshore gives me a lot off time off to venture off into the great outdoors, there's nothing better. I am very interested in trying out some wild camping, hoping to do it very soon in fact, so if anyone is looking for company give me a shout, I have never tried it but I am in the process of getting the kit together.
I am married with 2 children, my 8 yr old boy is already into Wainwright double figures, he often joins me and is great company on the fells.
I also enjoy cycling, running and would try most outdoor activities. If you are interested in joining me for a hike or a wild camp please get in touch.
Many thanks.

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

My Message: Hi, I'm looking for company, male or female, on walks locally or further afield, weekend breaks or walking holidays.
I enjoy hills and flat walks of any distance, also cycling (off road), and usually have a couple of dogs tagging along. Scrambling is always a challenge I'm up for, but not anything too scary, not keen on massive drops!
I'm keen to do more long distance, multi day walks, preferably with BandB or hostel/bunkhouse accommodation. I've done a few Explore walking holidays, which have been great fun, and I'd love to try some of the cycling holidays or self guided walks abroad.

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

My Message: Hi everyone,

My friends and I are seeking new friends to walk with in Wales or Shropshire, we are all hardy walkers and capable of trekking 18 miles + and mountain terrain. What we are in need of though is friends with map reading skills. We are able to travel together over to Wales and love nothing more than exploring the mountains in this region.

We are members of a local social club who arrange regular walks but often we require a more challenging hike in beautiful scenery.

Please get in touch if you are interested.

If you are interested in meeting up for a walk please let me know.

Debbie

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

My Message: Hi folks,

I live in North Devon and I'm looking for someone - primarily - who would like to join me on Dartmoor for either day-walks or backpacking trips/wild camping, though fully prepared to go further afield.

I have a fair knowledge of Northern Dartmoor and am fully able to get lost there with the best of them!

I suppose I could call myself a Mountaineer. I've climbed and walked in the Himalayas, Caucusses, Pyrenees, North Africa and the Andes (they're at the end of your armies) and have been wandering around the UK mountains since childhood. I'm also an average mountain-biker (in that I fall off frequently). Quite keen on Via Feratta too.

I like to think that I'm relatively fit, and would be happy with walks of any distance.

Oh, and my name's John. If all this doesn't put you off nothing will!

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

My Message: Photo to follow shortly.
Spring is in the air. Spring is in my heart. Spring is my legs.
It's a while since I've had my boots on, but I miss it.
I have a good life, but a male walking companion would improve it.
I have no dependent children and I'm financially secure.
My hair isn't grey, and neither is my attitude.

Mostly I would prefer to walk locally, and holiday further afield.

Sue

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

My Message: Active 54 year old looking for equally active male walking buddy for walking at weekends in the main as work prevents weekday walking. Looking for friendship and companionship initially, and take it from there. Happy to tackle most walking terrain, and not just a fair weather walker. Would prefer a non smoking companion, and happy to partake in a beverage at a Pub either en route or at the end of a walk. Very keen to do much more walking than I do currently, but need a buddy and navigator on board. Much prefer company and pleasant banter, and the added security proved. Currently exercise at home daily but would much prefer to be in the outdoors and fresh air.

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

My Message: Hi, I am Simon a 55 year old male from Carlisle. I love the outdoors and the hills and mountains in particular. I live close to the Lakes which I adore, but my greatest passion is for the Scottish Highlands, in particular the far north west, with Skye and Torridon being my favourites. I have to confess to being a 'bagger. ' I also enjoy a good scramble. However, I enjoy shorter and less strenuous walks along glens and valleys and along beaches and headlands.

I am out in the Lakes regularly and go to the Highlands as often as I can. I have made a number of bothy and camping trips, as well as staying in hostels and B and B's. The odd foray to Snowdonia has usually met with bad weather, but I live in hope.

I am looking for a female who enjoys exploring the wild and beautiful mountainous areas of our islands, and shares my passion for reaching the top.
