Hi I’m new to this and looking for a walking buddy.
I’ve only did 1 Munro as I don’t want to go alone and I was the only person that enjoyed it.
I’m based in Glasgow amd have a car occasionally

Hi there, Out of interest, which Munro did you complete (well done! :clap: )? And what are your plans? Are you looking to stay reasonably local or further afield? number of walks you're hoping to complete? Just to give a better idea for prospective meets. You can also just ask if anyone fancies doing something you have planned. Good luck

Hi
I completed Ben Lomond. I’ve did The Cobbler a couple of times but I don’t think that counts.
I’m looking to try as many as possible starting with the ones closest to Glasgow. Smaller ones in winter and I’ll save the bigger ones for summer :D

Not sure if you sorted for buddies lesleyyy. But I am going fairly regularly to hills in Argyll and around Crainlarich. Have transport and can pass through Glasgow. Only slight snag - may be a dealbreaker for you! - is that I am chasing Corbetts rather than munros (sometimes possible to pair mind you). Anyway, give me a shout if you interested.

Welcome to the forums, Lesley.
You're right in that The Cobbler isn't a Munro but it is classed as a Corbett and certainly a hill to be proud of climbing. :D
