A friendlier way for hikers to meet
Go Hiking Dating is a friendly dating site for people across the UK who love hiking, walking and the outdoors. Create a free profile, find someone who shares your love of the hills and take it at your own pace.
A note from Andy
Founder and writer
I started Go Hiking Dating because I wanted a friendly, relaxed place for people who love the outdoors to meet each other. If you'd rather be on a hill, a coast path or a woodland trail than in a busy bar, it really helps to meet someone who feels the same.
The idea is simple: share what you enjoy, find people who enjoy it too, and take things at your own pace. I also write the walking-date ideas and guides you'll find on the site. I hope it helps you find someone good to walk with.
