I am a Male Walker, in my early 60s, based near Ellesmere Port.

My Message: Male, 63 looking for anyone to accompany me on walks mainly around N.Wales. Regular weekly walks up Moel Fammau if that's of any interest. Self employed, so reasonably flexible. I'm not the quickest as I've got ms, (not disabled) but will take on virtually anything from a disused railway track to a mountain. Lake District beckons at the end of November, as I'm marshalling on an annual car rally in Grizedale Forest on the Saturday, which usually involves staying over for a mountain walk on the Sunday. Need to get Crib Goch and Tryfan done if anyone has experience please. As an alternative, if anyone has or knows of a dog owner whose pooch isn't getting enough exercise, then I may be willing to have him or her as company instead! Colin

I am a Male Walker, in my mid 50s, based near Nr Bourton On The Water Glos.

My Message: Hi all... Looking for some walking company male/female in the Glos/Oxford area.
Have always enjoyed the out doors and have taken up walking quite seriously over this past year for health reasons ( diabetic type 2 ). Have done Pemb coast path, not all at once I hasten to add, Peny Fan and bits of the South West coast path, Malvern Hills plus many of the local walks where I live. Would love to do Snowden in the near future but not that experienced with map and compass as yet but practising and improving every time Im out.Using a Garmin GPS when compass work goes T*Ts up ( not got lost yet, thankfully ). I work shifts, working most week ends, the week ends Im off I spend time with my partner, she has no real interest in walking at all. Most of my free time is in the week, 4 complete days off together so plenty of time for walking. Woud be prepared to travel, car share, expenses etc.
I'm 5ft 5ins ( just ) and have a Noir sense of humour, so if you like good food, posh Italian, or just a plain bacon sarnie, good conversation ( I like to put the world right ) art,(Salvador Dali and Georgia O'keeffe particular favs) music ( classical,sacred music, dance & trance ) then Id like your walking company.

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

My Message: Hello, my name is Adrian. I have spent to long walking on my own, and would love to find someone likeminded to accompany me and my dog snip.
I have tried for many years to get my partner and daughter to come along. Not going to happen.
I'm self-employed so I'm good for short notice and any time walks.
I've spent most of my time walking Dartmoor, but I also used to live in Blackpool, so north Wales and the lake district was my home ground.
My love is long distance walking. Camping is still good for me, but I must admit, the older you get the more BandB s look inviting.

I am a Male Walker, in my mid 30s, based near Reading.

My Message: Hi, I am Liam. I love hiking, and hoping to find a few more walkers out there. I try to spend as much of the summer hiking and have enjoy a good hike up a hill/mountain but also enjoy a relaxed Sunday stroll. I have been all over the UK (Highlands/Lakes/Peaks/Snowdonia etc) and also aboard in Europe. I try to keep active and currently also try to get the gym/run/play football. However, I do like to mix this up with a little walking and try to get outdoors over the weekend/whilst on holiday, and am looking for some company along the way (female preferred ;)). Happy to travel for a decent hike!

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

My Message: I'm in the process of trying to form a congenial small group of people (not always easy) who love walking and who would like to meet up for a day's walking on a regular basis, or possibly walk over several days once we get to know each other.

I've recently passed my Silver NNAS (National Navigation Award Scheme) and am already putting it into practice, but at the moment I tend to walk alone - but not through choice. Another plan is to walk the Coast to Coast with a few others next year.

However, I am not a "peak bagger" as my idea of a great walk is not being with hoards of people on a conveyor belt belting up the highest peak and back down again in the fastest time possible. I enjoy walks that take in a variety of scenery and away from the crowds.

So if you're interested I'd love to hear from you.

My Message: Hi, I'm looking to meet like minded people for mini adventures! I am a very active person, enjoying walking/ hiking, cycling and tennis on a fairly regular basis (around a full time job!) I'm struggling to get together friends, who don't have 'small people' commitments, to join me for walks in the Peaks/ Lake District or any of the other beautiful countryside in the UK.
I don't mind joining a group or any individuals that fancy getting away for a couple of days, either at weekends or during the week. I'm open to camping, hostels, hotels, sleeping under the stars... the bigger the adventure the better!
If your interested in joining me and have a likewise sense of seeing the world, feel free to get in touch! Lyndsey

My Message: Hi there, I'm new to the site, and fairly new to walking. Used to do a lot, and really keenly! Am now what could be termed as 'rusty', but very keen to start serious walking again, both for the company and for the exercise. I'm no good walking alone, and don't have a dog to drag me out and about, so am looking for male/female walkers who enjoy a good chat whilst they walk, and maybe a bite to eat as reward at the end of the trek!

My Message: Hi,
My name is Rosemary, 53yrs old and I'm a novice to walking. I have walked up Snowdon and around the Forest of Dean and Clent Hills and would like to expand my walking adventures. I am a operating theatre sister and do work weekends but also have them off and days off in the week, so can be flexible. I enjoy walking, but not so much fun on your own. I love a challenge, and need a bit of a push at times. So if any one would like to guide me to expanding my walking experiences I would be most grateful.

My Message: Haven't been walking or camping much recently, so need to sort that out! I love travel and the outdoors and also photography, live music, creative writing and other things that remind me I'm alive and not to waste a moment.

At the moment I am able to walk long winding tracks more than uphill adventures but have a few munros under my belt. Would be happy to find interesting lads and lassies to meander with.

I manage a charity project and I'm divorced. I love Wainrights books and ramblings.

Feel free to get in touch, I am a good person and hopefully will make you smile if nowt else!

I am a Male Walker, in my early 30s, based near Preston.

My Message: Hi, I'm Ant.

I've been a semi-regular day hiker for a while now, but have recently started to go out on the hills more frequently. I mostly walk around my local area (Lancashire) or the Lake district, but occasionally venture off to the Yorkshire Dales. Not many of my friends hike, and those that do are often busy when I'm free and v. v. - I'm quite happy to walk solo, but would prefer not to do so all of the time ;), and yes I've tried rambling clubs, but find them a little inflexible.

I haven't done much camping, but have really enjoyed what little I have done and would love to do more.

I'd say my navigation skills are average, but there's definitely room for improvement.

I'm ideally looking to meet someone around my local area, but anyone willing to travel to the Lakes or Dales is welcome also. I have a car, so the Peak District is also in reach. If you're only interested in day hikes that's fine, but (wild) camping is also something I'd like to do more of, so let me know if you do to. Age or gender isn't a factor, and am also happy to meet up with couples/hiking partners for 3-4 man walks.

Hope to hear from ya!

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

My Message: I am a 59 year old lady - relatively fit who loves walking anywhere. I love going on walking holidays in the UK and Europe and would like to travel further afield with walking being an important part of my holiday. I live in the Western Isles and do lots of walking in this area too. I am self employed, so I am very flexible with my time. I am looking for someone who has similar interests, who enjoys a good walk with perhaps some wine and a good meal at the end of it. I suppose you would call me a fair weather walker as I hate starting off a walk in the rain and can't see the point in plodding up a mountain if there isn't going to be any views once you get there, don't mind if it starts to rain once I've set off though. I like to take my time to enjoy the views when i'm walking in the mountains. I love all types of music (I'm a very amateur musician), would like to try some cycling again, enjoy a good book and like theatre. I don't do camping/caravanning - I prefer a comfy bed and other creature comforts at the end of a good day's walk. Like good beer and wine and am up for a laugh at any time. Life's too short to be too serious.

I am looking for walking friends for day walks, weekend away walking, national trails etc. I love walking the mountains but am equally as happy walking coastal areas. I work shifts so sometimes I walk during the week. My friends don't share my enthusiasm for walking and while I don't mind walking alone, a chat and a laugh along the way would be better. Im happy to walk in all weather and am happy to find a cosy pub, B andB or campsite at the end of a walk. If you are interested please get in touch :).

I am a Female Walker, in my mid 30s, based near Northampton.

My Message: Hi,
I'm 35 and looking to find a male friend for some walks, aged between 30-45. I'm a big fan of the lake district, although Yorkshire and the Peak District are good too, and a little closer.
Ideally looking to meet for short local walks first and then with the possibility of walking weekends 'up north' or Wales... or wherever there is nice countryside.
I love the challenge of getting up a hill/mountain, and would like to meet someone like minded (who does't just want to peak-bag, or do 15 miles route marches or rock climbing!), with a good beer in the pub after, and a meal.
I'm also keen on photography, but try not to stop every five minutes as you'd never get anywhere !
I'd also like to explore walks abroad, having been to the Dolomites and Switzerland, which are beautiful areas, but need the right company. (Again, I'm not into anything too adventurous, just similar grade walks to those in the lakes!)
Please message me.
