I am a Male Walker, in my late 40s, based near Bicester hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi
I like walking, hiking and scrambling and if I find somebody like minded then rock climbing as well. I have basic climbing gear for peak district rock climbing. I am easy going and enjoy a good laugh. I like to stay fit and active. I don't do runs but I enjoy occasional High Intensity Interval Training. I also do weight training and intermittent fasting for fitness and longevity. I do like to eat healthy and only drink socially.

A bit more about me:

When it comes to Scrambling & Edges I'm OK with the occasional edge or scramble but don't go looking for it. 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:

• Camping on Campsites - Camping where there is a shop, toilets, showers & possibly a pub;
• Mountain Biking
• Rock Climbing

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 mid 70s, based near Bradford, West Yorkshire hoping to meet just Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hello, I'm Roy, a young at heart fell walker looking for an easy going walking companion for walks both at home and abroad. I love the countryside so I'm not really fussed about particular areas in this country. The ones I've selected are where I walk regularly but would like to explore a little further afield and don't mind travelling to a decent walk. Abroad, my favourite walking areas are within the Mediterranean Climate Regions (prefer the more reliable weather!). Not into route marches or wild camping. Much prefer to take in the scenery, wildlife, local history and a suitable hostelry en route! I also have a wide range of other interests which include cycling, hot air ballooning, theatre and travel. I'm also pet friendly so don't mind a canine companion coming along. Look forward to hearing from you, Roy.

A bit more about me:

I can cope with a little bit of scrambling if it is short and there are no steep drops. I prefer warm, dry & sunny weather but can cope with the odd shower. I like walking with dogs but do not have one of my own. I'd say my map reading & navigation skills are pretty good. 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;
• Road Cycling

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

My Message: Hi, I live in Glasgow, with my border collie Rannoch, not too far from Loch Lomond. I used to be a regular walker in my younger days and I'm looking to get back into the great outdoors but would prefer to do it with some company, so I am looking for new friends to go walking with.
In the past I did the West Highland Way three times, The Great Glen Way once. Nowadays I'm a lot slower but I find that a good thing as it means I'm out in the green stuff longer.
I'm easy going, enjoy new challenges, and always up for a laugh, life's too short to be too serious !!!
I like to play guitar, love nature, wildlife, taking photos, and enjoy the simple pleasures in life.
If you fancy some company on a walk please get in touch.

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. I like walking with dogs and will bring my own. If pushed, I'd say my map reading & navigation skills are rather poor at best. I can drive and have my own Campervan/Motorhome.

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 50s, based near West Malling hoping to meet just Male new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi everyone, I'm katherine and love walking as much as the rest of you. I would like to go walking and mountaineering with someone who is as passionate about the mountains as I am. Was hoping to go wild camping this year for a weekend in the summer so if you are up for that I'd love the company as I won't do on my own.

I've done a lot of the Lakes having spent all my holidays there. Recently completed Ben Nevis with my teenagers! Boy that was hard work but we achieved it. So basically that means we've done the 3 peaks and looking to attempt lots more this year.

I live in the Kent and regularly go cycling along the north downs. I walk reguarly but its so much better to have someone with you. If there happens to be a special person out there hey that's great, if not just making new friends would be fabulous too.

Looking forward to hearing from you

I am a Female Walker, in my mid 60s, based near Ribchester hoping to meet just Male new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi, Lesley here,

As well as day walking I love to combine walking with holidays and adventures, even if it's just a couple of days.

Last year I travelled to Jersey and walked the whole coastal path. Had a wonderful week in Wales walking around the Cadair Idris region. Went to Croatia to swim in the sea, visit nature reserve islands, cycle and walk. Walked the whole of the Camino Primitivo which starts in the Asturias mountains region of Northern Spain, through Galicia and ends in Santiago.
Also quite a few festivals and days camping and hiking in the Lake District.

I'm going back to Jersey this year taking my daughter and 3 yr old grandson. We went to Alpbach in Austria last summer. The only way I can get my family up a mountain is via a ski lift! Great fun though.

I've also planned a week walking on the Greek Island of Evia. So lots of space left for walking adventures as yet.

I've previously walked all the Lake District summits, extensively in Snowdonia and Scotland and in my own neck of the woods, The Forest of Bowland AONB. I potter around here most days when I'm free.

I love being outdoors and although I love sunshine I'll walk in any weather if the mood takes me. I particularly love coast and ridge walking however I can enjoy the peaceful beauty of rivers and woodlands at times.

I'm interested in wildlife and nature, family and friends, art and architecture, philosophy, yoga and music.

I gave up work as an advisory teacher 8 years ago to project manage a full property restoration and self build which is now complete but I doubt I'll ever be finished. I love adding areas! This year it's a gorgeous greenhouse and raised vegetable beds. I've got to grow the 'turnip tops' I lived on when I travelled through Spain on the Camino!

I'm fortunate to have time to explore and adventure.
Love to hear from you.

I am a Male Walker, in my early 60s, based near Shrewsbury, Shropshire hoping to meet just Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi Folks
I've recently rediscovered my love of hiking and camping after years of neglect - one small positive to come out of Covid....I'm looking for some walking buddies to help push, drag and cagole me back to where I was years ago!

I've had to cancel treks to Everest Base Camp twice due to different reasons - fancy trekking in Nepal?

Fairly relaxed about venue although Wales and Peak District closest and no real aspirations apart from EBC sometime. Only relevant hobbies are running (Coach with a running club) and photography. 🙂

Be nice to hear from you.
Best wishes
Glenn

My Message: Hi there, Lover of nature and my ideal day is a scenic walk and prefer an amble rather than fast pace ramble so can take it all in. Good map readers especially welcome as I was last in the queue when senses of direction were handed out! I'm free most weekends and sometimes mid week. If anyone local, early evening walks on the long days of spring/summer!

My Message: Hello, I'm David, I'm 64 and widowed. Life is for living and I'm not ready to just sit back in a comfortable armchair having spent a number of years bringing up a young family alone. I'm hoping to make new friends for adventures and challenges,both here in the UK and overseas. I want to grab life for myself and start exploring the great outdoors. I'm fit and love being outdoors in all weathers, either walking or running. There aren't many hills in Hertfordshire so I'm happy to travel, although I'm also interested in more local walks across fields, bridleways and canal footpaths, especially if there is the incentive of coffee and cake. I'm generally a novice walker although have previously walked in the Peak District, Yorkshire, The Lake District and Scotland. My kids say they have the local care home on speed dial so I'm hoping to be rescued.

Life is about living with Passion and taking a few risks, sharing with friends & companions who value being at one with the ridge tops as the sun dances into another day with the moon overhead reflecting soulful smiles from below.

are you that female soul-mate companion to share new untold adventures and blank canvasses..

I am a Male Walker, in my late 60s, based near Wallasey hoping to meet just Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi, I'm Dave and I live on the Wirral and generally walk in North Wales, the Northern fells (Yorkshire & Cumbria) and Scotland. I completed the Munros a few years ago and am slowly working my way through some other hill lists. I head up to Scotland regularly and am keen on exploring the many Scottish islands.

Happy to do low level walks, but prefer to gain some height for the views and exercise. Fairly fit and like to keep a steady pace, stopping to look at the scenery and wildlife. I do a lot of driving so don't mind traveling to meet up for walks.

Retired so can walk on any day of the week especially if the weather is good,but do spend some time on other hobbies like DIY, cooking and rock climbing.

Good sense of direction and generally can navigate reliably.
Easy going with a sense of humour and enjoy conversation. Like to visit a pub afterwards for a drink. If you are interesting in joining me then please get in touch.

I am a Male Walker, in my late 40s, based near West Yorkshire hoping to meet both Male and Female new friends to go walking with.

My Message: Hi all,

I'm a late-forties male, and I would like to meet a new female walking partner and also friends either male or female. Time spent walking and enjoying our wonderful countryside just being outdoors is even better with the right person.

I enjoy all forms of walking, multi-day, long distance paths and less strenuous steady day walks too. Oddly enough my walks usually end at a nice country pub or two! Can't think why...There is nothing nicer than a lovely pub at the end of a great days walking.
I'm experienced at map reading and navigating and I enjoy the planning of walks on both traditional paper maps and also using GPS.
Sometimes I'll take a lightweight tent and camp and make it an outdoors weekend or stay in a B&B when exploring new areas.
My 'bread and butter' walking area is Yorkshire but I'm equally happy anywhere in the countryside.

I work part-time; so I've some availability on a weekday and also some weekends too. If you want a partner or friend to walk with who won't get you lost (I promise!) and has a good sense of humour, that could be me! Please do drop me a line..

A bit more about me:

I can cope with a little bit of scrambling if it is short and there are no steep drops. I'm happy to walk in all weathers - sunshine, snow, hail, wind & rain - bring it on. I'm not bothered about dogs one way or the other. I'd say my map reading & navigation skills are pretty good. I can drive but do not have access to a vehicle.

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;
• Peak Bagging - where the aim is to climb all the hills or mountains on a particular list such as 'bagging' all the Wainwrights or Munros;
• Long Distance Path Walking - Multi-day walks like The Pennine Way, Wainwright's Coast to Coast Walk;
• Back Packing - Multi-day walks carrying all your gear & wild camping;

By putting my profile on here I am hoping to meet someone special.

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

My Message: Hi, my name is Peter,I,m looking for some female company to share the great outdoors with, happy to go at short notice, love nice weather and try to get out when it's nice but happy in any weather, normally I go to the lake District with my son so would be nice to have some female company to enjoy with on my own or with my son and I, would be happy if anyone has children that want to go as my son who is autistic is also looking to make new friends rather than his boring dad😁I,m free at weekends and sometimes during the week, don't have any friends that share my love for the great outdoors so please message me if you need a hiking camping buddy. Thanks from Peter

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. I like walking with dogs but do not have one of my own. I'd say my map reading & navigation skills are pretty good. 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 . . .

I am a Female Walker, in my early 50s, based near Lytham St Annes.

My Message: Hi,

I've been a member now for quite a while but not used the site for ages so the time has come to dust off my walking boots and get back climbing, I've just done the Great North Run in 2hrs 14mins so not completely unfit.

Please get in touch if anyone is out there wanting a slowish companion.

I'm free most weekends and don't mind any weather conditions.

Thanks Linda

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

My Message: My absolute best place to be is outdoors walking the hills, dales, valleys... feeling freeee and being amongst the natural world. I've enjoyed walking for many years, and although never been a big mountaineer, over the years I have found myself drawn to these dramatic landscapes (Skye, The Hebrides, Glencoe, Scotland, The Lakes). I am equally besotted with the other end of the UK being fortunate enough to have lived in the south west region for just over a couple of years and was absolutely blown away by the coast walking. (I'm also happy to have an amble locally too).
I'm preety flexible on when and where I can walk and kinda fit ish (I think). My usual distance is between 6-8 miles. Whilst I have never learned the skill of map reading I do have several walking books which line my book shelf to support the maps !
So if you fancy doing some post lockdown walks and sharing a sarni and a flask en route it would be good to hear from you.

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

My Message: Hi, I have a good set of friends but unfortunately, none of them shares my interest in the outdoors. So it would be great to find someone to walk with and maybe even share a drink after.

I tend to walk in the Yorkshire area and sometimes the lakes but don't mind travelling outside of my usual walks. I don't have a particular preference, I am up for pretty much anything as long as I am in the beautiful outdoors.

I also like to mountain or road bike too and with working from home I can be flexible with my time due to being able to choose my own hours.

I consider myself friendly, easy-going and have a good sense of humour. So if you fancy adding me to your list of walking buddies then just drop me a message.

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

My Message: I've done loads of walking overseas - recently in the Apuans and Appenines - and several long-distance paths (SW Coast Path, Pembrokeshire Coast Path, Tramontana in Majorca, Lycian Way in Turkey) and get out once or twice a week locally in Devon, and have had holidays in Lake District, Cairngorms, Brecon Beacons, Peak District, Cotswolds etc. etc.! I'm not really into bagging peaks but will gladly accompany someone who wants to. My ideal is a day out, walking up to 12 miles or so, with ascents (don't like the descents so much as it's hard on the old knees but if you go up......). I have found group walking not too good - I'm so used to walking on my own that I don't converse as much as others - but feel that, as I get older, a companion is a good idea!

My Message: Wondering if there is a compatible, friendly lady out there who would like to join me, (and lurcher) on walks, mainly in North Yorkshire?

I live in Kirkbymoorside, on the edge of The North York Moors, and enjoy walking in this wonderful area,along with The Dales, Lakes and occasionally further afield.

I'm a genuine and honest person, and would like to meet someone to share walking adventures and companionship, possibly/hopefully leading to romance too!

It would be good to hear from you if the above strikes a chord.
