Newbie looking for hookups for long day walks in June

Newbie looking for hookups for long day walks in June


Postby pinetreeman » Fri Apr 26, 2019 11:10 pm

Hi - I'm looking to fix up a long day's walk on a weekend or two in June and beyond. I'm Aberdeen area, car owner and happy to drive. Done quite a bit in Cairngorms and that's fine but can go south or west to see some different terrain. Possibly Perthshire, Crianlarich Hills where I've done some walking already. I'm 53 and male, reasonably fit, use a GPS (could do with improving paper maps skills), and happy to walk with anyone with a sense of humour. I tend to go by Mountain Weather Info Service and avoid horizontal rain and gales.

I'm a fellow newbie looking for a hill walking buddy. I tend to go hill walking at weekends but can be flexible work wise if Mountain Weather info says we're in for a cracking hill day. I'm 32, female and decent fitness. Hoping to head out this weekend.

Hey Guys. New on here as well but would love to get out more. Looking for a partner to go out with.
Since the academic year is over I'm free to explore and hike most of the time. Always up for a spontaneous hike.

Hi Folks,

Ime a 50 year old man living in Aberdeen (reasonably fit) and, always looking for someone to get out and about the hills with.

Tend to have a fair bit of spare time so can manage midweeks, as well as weekends given a bit of notice.

I do all hills from Munros to sub 2000s, but do prefer to avoid the bad weather if I can. :D

Anyone interested in meeting up just give me a PM.
