Walking with someone you met online

A stranger on a multi-day walk becomes your rope partner in bad weather. Talk before you commit: daily distance, start times, budget, and what happens if one of you wants to stop. Swap the plan with someone at home, agree on bail-out points, and keep your own map, food and shelter. A buddy is company — not a substitute for being self-sufficient.

Looking for your kind of hikers rather than a partner for one trip?
