I am a Female Walker, in my early 20s, based near West Bretton.
 My Message: Hi everyone, my names Laura and I'm 22 years old. I'm looking for a walking partner from Monday - Friday in and around Yorkshire/Derbyshire. I wouldn't say I'm one of the fittest out there but I'm definitely working towards getting better and better. At the moment I'm currently walking 6/7 miles a day in all sorts of terrain alone, so I'm just looking for someone to witness the beauty of the outdoors with me. I love all things vintage, absolutely love history (especially the classical history) and I tend to 'get on with' people of a higher age than me. Men and women my age into walking/hiking is incredibly hard to find. I would like to point out after reading some other adverts that I am looking for something purely platonic as I am not single. There is no filter on my ad on whom I'm looking for, whether it's a gentle troll or a tougher hike I am absolutely happy in both elements.
Look forward to hearing from you!
Laura.

I am a Male Walker, in my mid 50s, based near Nantwich.
 My Message: Hi,
I live in Nantwich. My wife and friends are not keen on mountains or high places so I sometimes walk with groups (clubs, walking festivals or charity events). Other times I walk alone. I am looking for new friends for occasional day or weekend walks (male, female or small group).
I'm easy going, and always up for a laugh. Ideally I prefer mountain walks in wild places, ridge walks, edge walks, anything with some elevation and views really. A bit of scrambling is always a welcome bonus. Also I like overnight walks to take in the sunrise over the mountains when conditions allow. Happy to do some lower level walks though particularly if the weather is bad. Ok with map and compass, never get lost, though occasionally I get delayed ;-)
Some people have said that I walk fairly fast, I’m not sure really so I went up Snowdon on one of the easy paths, good weather and an 8kg pack. Took just under 2 hours from car park to summit (about 4 miles and 3,000 ft. ) I think that is a steady relaxed pace but might be fast for some people, slow for others. (I can walk faster or slower though) Distance is no problem, really depends on the terrain but long or shorter days are fine.
Happy staying in Youth hostels, bunkhouses, camping, bivvy bag on a hill, etc.
My Favorite place to walk is Snowdonia (still plenty more to explore) but I would like to spend a bit more time on the high fells in the Lake District this summer and possibly do the Yorkshire 3 peaks (never done it but no idea why not). Scotland would also be good but may have to wait due to available time.
Open to suggestions for any new challenges, via ferrata, Caving, Sea to Summit, Perhaps Lakeland 3000s or Welsh 3000s (probably over a weekend though as I don’t think I am fit enough to do either of these in the 24 hours) I plan to retire in about 2 years so I will have more time for bigger adventures but for now I am limited to weekends though I can usually get away early on Fridays.
I love dogs, don’t have one at present but Border Collies are my favorite breed. I like them all though so if you have a dog that likes to walk that would be great.
If you fancy meeting up for a walk sometime please get in touch, I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks
Dave.

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

I am a Male Walker, in my mid 50s, based near Northallerton.
My Message: I love walking in the Cumbrian Mountains, the Yorkshire Dales and North Yorkshire Moors but, unfortunately, have nowhere near enough opportunities to get away and do so during term time. You may now have figured out that I am a teacher! I run the Duke of Edinburgh's Gold Award scheme for my school and I am a qualified ML(S). I am happy to walk solo but it's much more fun to walk with a companion. Most of my colleagues run a mile when I suggest a walk or a night's wild camping. So if any one is out there who might like to get together for a day out on fells or Dales; maybe even two, please get in touch. Tom

I am a Male Walker, in my mid 60s, based near Kendal.
My Message: Hello I am John and have recently moved into the south lakes area. I am looking for a walking companion male / female to join me on walks grade 3-4-5-6-7.
I am recently retired and enjoy walking, sailing, basically anything which gets me outside into this wonderful area. I enjoy both hill walks and occasionally walking along a river or around a lake.
I have a well behaved rescued blue roan cocker spaniel who also enjoys a good walk so another dog would not be a problem.
At the end of a walk there is nothing better than a drink and maybe a pub lunch.
look forward to hearing from any like minded person.
John

I am a Female Walker, in my late 30s, based near Nantwich.
My Message: Hi, I've lived round here for a few years now but am yet to find some like minded walking buddies who are not tied up with small children and the likes. I would really love to get out there into the great outdoors on some proper walks. I do lots of little dog walking ones locally but I'd really love to get over to North Wales for example or the Lakes or anywhere I can really escape from Nantwich. It seems such a waste to have all that on my doorstep and not make use of it!! So I'm hoping to find some like-minded people or a walking group I can go with so please do get in touch if your interested and not too far away.
Jess

I am a Male Walker, in my late 40s, based near Essex.
My Message: Looking for a hiking partner this weekend. Snowdonia.tryfan and glyders. Routes all planned. Early start Saturday back Monday. Or join me for a day. Been let down by friends.not superfit so leisurely pace.
Any takers.
Hi i Love the outdoors and have been peak bagging for a few years. But not in a geeky way. Not into football and stuff so decided to start peak bagging as I needed a thing.
Climbed most peaks in the beacons and several in snowdonia and the lakes. Love walking can't get friends to join me so getting a bit lonely. I don't take it too seriously but love a challenge and s drink or three at the end of the day. Think I'm a normal non weird or axe murderer type. Similar traits appreciated. Don't care age Just want to have a laugh keep fit and enjoy the outdoors with some good company.

I am a Female Walker, in my early 50s, based near South Lakes, Cumbria.
 My Message: Hi, I am a straight single female looking for walking companions/buddies Female and Male, in their 30's/40's /50's -hopefully forming good friendships, and walking buddies, to have a good laugh and chat along the way. I act and look much younger than my years. I don't take life too seriously and have a very good sense of humour. I love nature/wildlife, photography, and to end the walk at a tearoom or pub.
My preferred area is the Lake District (as I live in the Lakes), and Yorkshire Dales, but I 'am open to walking other areas such as Snowdonia, Scotland, etc.
I am a fit and active person, always up for adventure, who enjoys walking the high Lake District Fells, including some scrambling, but I also enjoy walking the valleys or along the lakeshores.
I have recently taken up to indoor climbing too.
I love Scotland and have been to the Trossachs and the Isle of Skye and trekked some of the Cuillins and the Quiraing which gave me a taste to trek more Munro's.
I have completed all 214 Wainwrights and The Pennine Way.
I like to take in the scenery and photographs along my walks, not frogmarch straight to the top! I don't mind any length of walk, but on average a good walk of 8-15 miles or even more is fab!
I hope to hear from you.
Ps- Border Collies are my favourite breed of dog!

I am a Male Walker, in my late 40s, based near Harlow.
 My Message: Hi there, I'm looking to meet new people interested in walking (funnily enough!), companionship and chatting - I'm a good listener ;). The last 3 years I have been winter hiking and climbing in the mountains around Glencoe learning navigation and avalanche skills, and the conditions were at times quite fierce! However, I now have a taste for some hiking outside of bleak winter conditions. With this in mind, whilst I do enjoy a tough challenging hike in the mountains, I do also appreciate the beauty of nature and can enjoy a much more gentle day in the hills with good company and an associated pub lunch! It would be great to meet someone who's been walking for a while since they would know all the good walks! I'm not a peak bagger (not sure if that's the correct expression!) but am not averse to trying any peaks that come across my path. I'm generally pretty fit because in addition to hiking I like to run, cycle, and swim, leading an active and outdoor-orientated lifestyle. I have my own transport and am happy to travel some distance to find a decent walk in the hills or mountains (I live in Essex so there aren't that many around!). I am free mainly at weekends but can do weekdays if I have enough notice and there is enough to entice me along as I would need to book time off work. Please drop me line if interested or you'd like more info. Look forward to hearing from you... Andy.

I am a Female Walker, in my early 50s, based near Shrewsbury.
My Message: Whether a gentle stroll or a challenging trekking holiday, I'm always keen to pull on my walking boots and head off to places best seen on foot. I discovered the joys of walking whilst training for the London Moonwalk in 2007, and since then I've covered many miles in the UK, including Hadrian's Wall and climbing Snowdon, Ben Nevis and Scafell (although not all in one day) I've also spent a week walking in the beautiful french Pyrenees and completed two trekking holidays - in Kerala and to Everest Base Camp, both incredible experiences, and I'd love to do more e. g. Machu Picchu.
My other passion is skiing, and I've recently returned to the UK having taken a short career break to work in the french Alps last winter (the oldest chalet maid in town!) Now back behind a desk full time - suffering 'cabin fever' - I'm keen to get out walking as much as possible at weekends, please get in touch if you'd like to join me.

I am a Male Walker, in my mid 40s, based near Didcot.
My Message: Hi there, I'm a 44 year old male living in Oxfordshire, who loves to spend occasional days/weekends walking the South West Coast Path and Pembrokeshire Coast Path. I'm also partial to walks in the Black Mountains and Brecon Beacons, and would love to get to know mid-Wales better. I'm also keen to explore Exmoor and Dartmoor. I spent my younger years bagging the Munros, and still love the occasional visit north of the Border, as well as walking in the Swiss Alps a couple of times a year. Am looking for a female who has a similar interest in these areas and would like to join me on trips. I have my own transport and would be happy to provide lifts as necessary. Mark

I am a Female Walker, in my late 50s, based near Bristol.
My Message: Hello
I live in north of Bristol and go walking with friends in the areas I've ticked, but would like to meet some new people to enjoy walking with at weekends. Anything from 6 to 12 miles is good for me. I like footpaths rather than lanes and anywhere that has amazing views and archaeology to explore.
I can drive or happy to take public transport to get to a circular walk route.
Think I'm OK company, happy to chat along the way with other walkers. Most of all love the here and now of being out there (a pint along the way goes down well too!)
Helen
