Walkmates – Discover UK Walks, Hills and Hiking Groups

Walkmates® connects you with scenic hill routes, walking groups, and organised hikes. Whether you’re summiting mountains or taking a gentle stroll, there’s something for every walker. Discover popular walks in regions like the Lake District, join upcoming walks, or try an explorer walk—and maybe find a ghost or two along the way.

Walkmates.com is the place to find your next trail, your next adventure, and maybe even your next walking buddy. Whether you’re climbing peaks or exploring hidden local paths, Walkmates makes it easy to join or create walks, discover new places, and connect with people who love the outdoors as much as you do. You can walk solo with Explorer Walks, leave digital footprints behind with Ghosts, or get involved in real-world meetups. From casual strolls to serious summits, this is a space for people who walk not just for fitness, but for joy, challenge, and connection. Walkmates isn’t just about getting from A to B — it’s about who you meet on the way.
