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

My Message: Well, I am up for just about anything with anyone. Young/old, male/female, etc etc. It's not that I'm not fussy, but I enjoy meeting and finding about new people, although finding a regular glutten for punishment would be good. I enjoy a good laugh and a chat, but equally happy just enjoying sharing the scenery in ' companiable solitude' - not sure where that one came from!!
My usual partners circumstances have changed - baby, moved away, and the other one, well she found herself a man.
I am confident with navigation, enjoy grade 1 scrambles -although I used to climb to a good standard and fancy taking on a bit more, although I have no kit now.
I am currently looking for work so have a reasonable amount of flexibility of when and how long I go for, subject to getting a pass from 'she who must be obeyed'! But not a problem.
I am up for wild camping - but prefer bunk houses/bothys this trime of year.

Would love to have a bit of a challenge in winter conditions, if someone is happy to share their knowledge, I am prepared to invest in more winter kit.

My Message: Hi, I have always enjoyed walking and would like to get back into it and build up my fitness with a view to walking/trecking abroad at some time, hopefully somewher high and dramatic! I don't enjoy walking totally alone but do enjoy walking, chatting and the opportunity to be alone (with others), drinking in the atmosphere and scenery. I am happy to walk with singles, small groups, both males and females. I am able to walk at weekends and in the school holidays. Very happy to combine walk with a drink or lunch at a nice country pub. If you think I may be a suitable walking-mate for you please contact me.

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

My Message: Hi, I am a very fit 63 yr old female. I am slightly restricted to walking locally, since I am a carer for my father. However with forward planning, I can go further afield. My very well behaved golden retriever likes walking too! Hoping to meet like-minded people (m/f) to share my enthusiasm for flora/fauna. Pub lunches always welcome, or picnic in clement weather. Other interests include art/music/literature/gardening. Hope to hear from you.

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

My Message: Hi, I'm a 'relaxed' walker with a great love of the countryside and nature, married to a non-walker! I'm not into route marches (perish the thought!) but like to stop and appreciate interesting views. I like photography and would enjoy sharing walks with chatty like-minded individuals with a view to building a small group of friends to walk with, find nice watering holes and coffee houses to round off the day. I also have long summer breaks to extend walks - maybe walking hols which are great fun - as I work term-time only.

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

My Message: Hello Everyone,
I’ll be moving to south Devon next Spring to semi-retire, walk more, make friends, discover new hobbies and generally enjoy myself. So I am planning ahead and hoping meantime to make contact with folk (M/F/groups) who like walking the Coastal path/Dartmoor/anywhere else beautiful (so much choice down there!). I currently visit Devon regularly (to walk and to see towns/villages I think I might want to live in) so please let me know if you’d like to meet up to share a walk and a chat. I can navigate reasonably well, am fit (but like to pause now and again to appreciate just being where I am) and I enjoy good company.

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 30s, based near Croydon.

My Message: Hi I like to walk and since becoming single a few years ago have nobody to walk with as none of my friends are interested. I live in Croydon in Surrey but drive so happy for either local walks or further away. I don't like big groups so would be nice to find somebody to walk with especially as the weather improves. Also like the Peaks, Yorkshire Dales and Snowdonia for weekends away.

I am looking for male or female companions to share my passion mainly at weekends as I work full time.

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!

In an effort to get fitter I have taken up walking. I am brand new to it so need to find someone who is patient and willing to teach me map reading, how to use a compass etc!!!!!!
