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

My Message: Hello

I’m a 55 year old straight female living on the northern edge of Cambridge. So far I have only tackled fairly short walks as it’s not much fun on your own. It would be nice to get together with other not too serious walkers in my neck of the woods to get out into the countryside for some “moderate” walking. I am a dog lover so would welcome them too!

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

My Message: Hi, I am a fairly fit 59 year old female who is based in West Cumbria and has walked extensively in the Lake District over the last 6 years when I moved here. Having recently retired and with extra time of my hands I would now like to walk in more of the UK. Unfortunately my husband hates walking and has no desire to accompany me on my travels so it would be good to meet up with anyone who enjoys walking as much as I do. I have a car and am quite happy to drive pretty much anywhere!

I am a Male Walker, in my late 20s, based near Leeds.

My Message: Hi, I'm 29, male, living in Leeds. I'm interested in hearing from anyone who enjoys moderate to hard walking/scrambling, in anything from bright sunshine to heavy rain. I'm available most weekends and can do day walks or even bring my tent for two-day trips. I can get to the Lake District (I've made some in-roads into counting off the Wainwrights!), Yorkshire Dales and Peak District (possibly Snowdonia at a push). I've done a reasonable amount of walking before but am no expert. I completed the National Three Peaks in May, but haven't been out since (so might need to begin with something that isn't too intense!). I'm easy-going and friendly, and looking to walk with any individual/small group with a similarly relaxed but enthusiastic about seeing the outdoors!

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

My Message: Hello. Newly-single female keen to cram in more walking round the demands of job, house and teenagers!
I enjoy walking the trails (completed Hadrian's Wall path, Cumbrian Way, West Highland Way, and Coast and Castles routes to date) and I'm a fairly experienced hillwalker, currently ticking off the Wainwrights with friends when our diaries happen to coincide.
But I would love to get away more often for days out and, later, for weekends when life settles down. Although I'm probably restricted to places an hour or two's drive from Hexham in the short-term, if you fancy joining me - male or female - please get in touch.

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

My Message: Hi - My name is Kate (40yrs) and I live in the Newbury/Hungerford area. I would love to hear from anyone (male/female) who is keen to take me under their wing and help me rediscover the joys of walking and the beautiful scenery and wildlife of the UK. You would preferably be au fait with a compass/map and confident to take the lead! I am reasonably fit, although there is room for improvement, as I have not walked for a while!! I am happy to travel in order to explore new routes. I am also partial to rounding off a walk with a visit to a good, old, traditional English pub or the like.

I also love horse riding and cylcling although have friends who are happy to join me in these activities. Whereas, walking appears to be rather a different matter for some reason, hence my message. Much more fun to walk in good company than alone!

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

My Message: Hi. I live in London, but have started walking for the first time outside the South East. I am just beginning to see how beautiful my own country really is. I would like to do a long distance trail such as the Dales Way or the Cumbrian Way, staying in BandBs or youth hostels. I'm generally in good shape, but for me walking is to be enjoyed and views to be savoured, so I don't go in for forced marches or sprints! I would love to have a walking companion to share the views, lunch stops and tea breaks with. I'm OK with a guidebook and map, so if you're experienced with compass etc, so much the better!

I am a Female Walker, in my early 50s, based near South Gloucestershire.

My Message: Hi, my name is Sue, I am a young 53 year old, married and live in South Gloucestershire a beautiful part of the country. My other half will walk but only short distances, so I am looking for female/male walkers of a similar age to walk either weekends or school holidays (I work in a school)! I am prepared to travel within a reasonable distance depending on the walk. I particularly enjoy walking near the coast or river and am quite happy to walk anything up to 6/7 miles with hopefully a pub meal or cream tea at the end. My aim this year is to get fit, so if you would like to meet up and help me achieve this then please get in touch.

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

My Message: Hi my name is Ollie, i'm a 60yr old retired lady, fit and active. I am in a walking club and also a running club but would love to meet both male and female fellow walkers who are able to walk during the week as well as weekends. I am particularly interested in meeting people who would like to walk Long Distance Paths. I did the Furness Way last year stopping at hostels and B and B's and really enjoyed it and would love to do more. Although I am reasonable with a map, I haven't the navigational skills or confidence to do mountain walking alone even though i am fit enough to the big Scottish Peaks with the right people ( did some in Glencoe last May). Looking forward to hearing from like minded people

I am a Female Walker, in my late 50s, based near North Bedfordshire.

My Message: Hi, I'm a single, 57 year old, female, who has just moved from the Derbyshire Peak District to rural Bedfordshire! So I'm missing the hills. I'm looking for a male friend for walking, talking, laughing and that pint/meal at the end of the day. I love walking in wild, empty places and don't mind roughing it occasionally to get to that special place. I completed the Coast to Coast in May and would like to do other trails........preferably using B&Bs! I've walked a lot in Europe, Canada, Patagonia and New Zealand and would love to discover new places. And I've recently discovered the delights of Assynt and Norway. I work full-time, so weekends tend to be reserved for walks. I'm not particularly fast - I like to take in everything around me rather than going on a route march! I'd love to hear from you if you have similar interests.

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

My Message: Hi, I’m Andrew from North Yorkshire and I really enjoy walking around the dales but it’s much better to share it with someone.
I’m looking for a female friend to go walking with. Someone to chat, to share the views and find a good pub or cafe at the end of the days walk (preferably with roaring open fire on cold days).
Now unattached and keen to make new friends, get out walking at weekends and evenings too once the spring/summer gets going.
I enjoy any sort of walks from a stroll around a reservoir to something more adventurous heading up the hills. Lots of beautiful dales walks in area but would like to try the lakes as well and always enjoy the coast. Transport is no problem, I often work around the Peak District which is another favourite area.
Not done any long walks recently but am generally fit and active and always up for a challenge.
I’m easy going and not too bad with maps. I want to get out more and explore the countryside with friendly company so if any of this sounds like the same things you enjoy please get in touch. Thanks :)

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

My Message: Hi, I live in Derbyshire and I am genuinely looking for a male companion to share all there is to love and enjoy in walking and discovering new experiences. I have loved walking for many years, and has always been my love and a way of keeping fit and healthy. I love walking in any weather and as often as possible. I enjoy both gentle walking, stoping to take in views and breath the fresh air, and longer all day walks which are more challenging.

I love walking holidays, and I would very much like to explore further. There are so many areas of the country I have yet to discover, and I am looking for a like minded male to share these times with. I would love to plan a walking holiday this year.

I am free to walk most week-ends, and also some evenings when the evenings are lighter.

I would love to hear from you if you would like to share my love of walking, and the discovery of many new walks up and down the country.

Thank you for reading my message, Olwyn.

I am a Female Walker, in my early 50s, based near Newcastle Upon Tyne.

My Message: Hi I'm a reasonably fit 50+ lady looking for walking companion(s) or a group of walkers in the North East of England. Just to get away from the same old home to work routine that goes on week after week. My partner thinks getting from A to B should be done by the quickest and fastest route possible. (Why walk when you can get there in a rocket!) Have previously done some walking/hiking in North Yorks and Lake District and Northumberland. I'm free most weekends, but would also like to organise a group walk for a few days. I know the weather's not great at the moment, but meeting up just to talk about organising walks could be fun and could be done over a couple of drinks in a warm friendly pub? If you fancy walking or talking about walking, get in touch.
