I am a Female Walker, in my early 30s, based near Lincoln.

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

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

My Message: Hi,
I'm 52 yet young at heart and in body (well, I'd like to think so!) I live with a slightly mad spaniel called Alba (my current walking buddy) and the occasional child when they need to escape London for the countryside. Alba and I would very much like to find some new friends to walk with, locally as well as further afield. I particularly like exploring coastal paths (have walked a small section of the SW coast path whilst on holiday in Sennen Cove this Summer) although woodland walks and moorland rambles are also favourites. I look forward to sharing the walks that I love in my beautiful home county of Somerset and being shown those favourites of my new walking friends. I think I should point out that I'm more of a rambler who welcomes the promise of a pub lunch or cream tea at the end of a spot of moderate exercise... hard core Trekkers might find me a disappointing partner therefore!
Angie.
PS: Alba would like a walking partner too, but she's equally happy with either a solo human or one with a canine friend :)

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

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!

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

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: Hi, I'm an fairly fit, single lady whose passion is walking and wildlife, looking to hook up with like minded people(or person! ), either in my home area of Exmoor, or further afield. I love exploring new footpaths, with my binoculars around my neck, hoping to see something interesting, but I normally walk alone and it would be nice to share my passions with good company!.
I'm in the middle of doing the S. W. coast path, and last winter took myself off to La Palma in the Canaries, which is becoming a fantastic winter walking destination... please drop me a line if your maybe interested to do some walking with me

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

My Message: I would love to do coast walks in Devon or Cornwall although am happy to walk other places. On my bucket list is walking the s.w coast path probably in small bits. I have own transport to get where ever. I do still work so would have to fit around this.
It would be good to walk with someone male or female confident to 'navigate' as this is what puts me off of walking to far alone.
More than happy to combine a walk with pub lunch and pint or glass of wine.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

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

My Message: I live in the foothills of the beautiful Berwyn Hills and love being in the countryside and related pursuits ie canoeing, horse riding, mountain biking, though I would also like to discover other places in UK, Ireland and continent.
. I like to walk anywhere up to ten miles in most weathers. Taking bit of time to stargaze, inspect the insects, smell the flowers is also important, not just the mileage clocked up. I would like to meet a like-minded single male aged 49 to 65 to enjoy these things. Prefer B&B rather than camp, though am not averse to one night in a tent (summer only). I have varied interests and like conversation. My other hobbies are jive dancing, table tennis, badminton and body surfing amongst many. Look forward to hearing from you. Kim

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

My Message: Hi. I am relatively new to this walking malarky so I am looking for strolling partners, male and female, who are a similar age to myself (hopefully I will be able to keep up that way!) and who can introduce me gently into this wonderful pastime. Unfortunately my friends haven't fallen in love with hill walking as I have so this seemed the perfect way to meet and make new friends.
I am a single straight female who works far too hard during the week so I need to escape my cell (pet name for my office incase you were getting worried!) at the weekends and there is no better way of doing that than exploring this beautiful country whether that be walking or cycling.
The Lake District has to be my all time favourite but I am happy to be proven otherwise! I am easy company and would appreciate buddies with a crazy sense of humour and zest for life that would match my own! Looking for walks that range from 5-10 miles although happy to do more if necessary and like most on here I enjoy the mandatory pit stop at a pub or tea room! If you can identify with any of the above it would be lovely to hear from you.

I am a Female Walker, in my late 40s, based near Port Talbot.

My Message: Wow so many questions! I have just discovered this website and it seems pretty genuine, I've not registered for romance, I have registered for a walking buddy, who is good company and happy to get out there, I'm 48, happy to attempt any area for walking but I am full time, single mum, teach amazing teenagers at Sunday school so time is pretty limited - mainly to a Saturday ;)
My previous walking experience includes Snowdon, Skarfel, Pen Y Fan, Kili and I thank my beautiful grandad that he used to take me for amazing walks as a kid - anyway if there is anybody who fancies helping encourage me train for Toubkal please drop me a post! Have a great week!

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

My Message: Hello, I've recently moved to West Cornwall from London and looking forward to exploring new areas of the South West (Cornwall primarily but also Devon and Somerset). My favourite type of walks are coastal, but I also enjoy the contrast of deeper countryside and moors. Stopping off for a quick visit to the pub or cup of tea is never a bad thing, in my opinion!

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

My Message: Hi, I'm James from North Devon. Walking has really helped me to recover my strength and stamina after a long period of illness. Dartmoor is right on my doorstep and I have been making a determined effort this year to get to know it better. Wild camping on the moor has a deeply therapeutic effect on me - underlining the importance of keeping things simple and in balance.

I usually walk alone, my friends are usually busy, and I think some company would be nice. Dartmoor is a wonderful playground that I would never tire of but I am happy to try anywhere in the UK that I can reach by train. I have a spare tent that I can lend out if you are not sure whether camping is your thing but would like to give it a go without spending lots of money. Looking forward to hearing from you.

I am a Female Walker, in my early 50s, based near Tucson, Az Usa.

My Message: Hello Walkers (female & male)

I'm a desert-dwelling American hoping to arrange some walks for a holiday upcoming this summer. My dates are 27 June until 13 July. The only date I'm unavailable to walk is 3 July, when I have a London meeting.

Though I have some interest in Hadrian's Wall, I am open to walking in any part of the UK to which I can take public transport or hitch a ride, and where a good pint is never far off. I'm keen to find good company and lots of 'exotic' (non-arid!) scenery.

So, if you're looking for a walking buddy, or care to be a tour-guide for a visitor, please drop me a line!

Best,

Leigh

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

My Message: Hello everyone, I have recently moved into the Shropshire area and looking to get more active with walks and hikes. I have seen and been on a few walks but would like some company to while away the hours chatting while burning up the miles. I am quite new to it all so will probably need some time to get my fitness levels up, but I am willing to put in the hours at the weekend and some evenings depending where I am with work.

Thank you for reading hope to hear back from people.

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

My Message: I live in Essex and later on this year I am doing a charity trek in Vietnam. So at the moment I am trying to get lots of walks in! Typically I walk about 10 miles but it's fairly flat where I live so I'd like to go a bit further afield and it would be good to have some company. I work part-time so sometimes walk on weekdays, sometimes weekends. I walk in Essex, but also like the South Downs as it's a bit more hilly!

My Message: Hi, I used to do a lot of walking (Cairngorms etc. ) in my youth so keen to 'gradually' get back into some more serious stuff. Love the outdoors and still quite fit so would love to have a walking partner as my wife/kids are not into walking in any way. Good with a map and not too fussy about perfect weather. Like to chat and have a laugh, pub and creature comforts at the end of the day are great. Available w/e and school holidays. Look forward to hearing from anyone interested.

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

My Message: Hi My name is Alan and i'm looking for walking buddies in the Wiltshire area initially as this is where i live but i also have contacts with the New Forest. I am enthusiastic though so i'm sure this will expand in no time and often my work can take me various locations. I have done quiet a few walks along the ridgeway both day and night and often like to take photos but nothing too excessive that it ruins the vibe of the walk. Weekends are more tricky as i have a wife and family who i prefer to spend my time with however i'm a freelancer so weekdays can be flexible and often when i like to walk but my preference is to do this with people. i live in Calne and look forward to hooking up with anyone in the area soon.

I am a Male Walker, in my mid 50s, based near Faringdon Oxon.

My Message: Hi, I’m Steve, 55, 5’ 6” tall, average build, but not as fit as I think I am! I’m looking for a female walking companion to share big & small adventures in the great outdoors. I have the Ridgeway and Cotswolds close by but prefer the high places like the Lake District, Snowdonia and the Brecons and head for them when time and funds allow. I also enjoy coastal walks or mooching around a town. I love camping and am looking to trying wild camping this year as I’m a keen photographer wanting to capture mountain sunrises and sunsets. Not averse to the odd B&B or hotel now and again though. I work office hours so am usually free at weekends, and summer evenings locally. I think I’m a reasonable navigator (thank you GPS!). And it’s always nice to go for a drink and chat at the end of the day. I’m not really into route marches but like to stop to admire the view and take photos. Happy to walk in all weathers. Happy in my own company but it would be great to have a like-minded soul along for the journey.

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

My Message: Hello, I’m Sandi, fit and 59, no partner and in a full-time job but with weekends free. Done good distances all round Europe and Africa and back home I walk, run or cycle 4 and a half miles to and from work most days but really like to stretch my legs a good 12 – 16 miles at the weekends when possible dependent on the season and daylight. Moonwalks and Marathon walks also done and still on the list and I would really like to meet up with anyone wanting to share company and make new friends and am happy to travel or make a weekend of it somewhere. I’d love to notch up some of the UK national trails (Still trying to get to section 6 of the Ridgeway) and my great wish is to be able to complete the South West coast trail! Just love being outdoors and happy to pub or picnic. Currently looking for someone to do the South Downs way all in one with me over a week in August.... Any takers?
