What an account gets you

Your routes, plans and walking conversations in one place.

Find walks near you

Routes across the UK with maps, photos and distances — hills, coast, countryside and city — so you know what you are walking into before you set off.

Meet other walkers

Find an organised group walk, or message someone walking in your area and say hello before the day itself.

Organise your own

Pick a route, set a date and a meeting point, and let people come to you. Keep everyone updated if the weather or the parking changes.

I was a little anxious at first but there was no need I thoroughly enjoyed chatting to my new friends whilst walking, taking in the surroundings and couldn't wait to do it all again!
