Walking: Singles walk for love and meet hiking and walking all over the world.

More information about walking and walks for fitness: 

A singles' advantage to walking is walking for love. Getting in better shape is a big bonus for meeting while walking or hiking.

Many groups all over the world sponsor walks. In some groups, all ages walk. In other groups, certain ages tend to walk together.

Let's face it: the woods are romantic--sunlight dappled through the branches, a bubbling brook, birds singing in the trees...

Hiking events are sponsored by the local Sierra Clubs to raise awareness about the environment and to allow you to enjoy the  outdoors while meeting others who also enjoy nature.

They are normally (but not always) held on the week-end and are often followed by a meal.  

Single parents are frequently welcome to bring their children if they can walk the distance covered.

We all know meals are a good way to get to know someone. However, it is hard to move around and get to know everyone at a meal.

Not so on a walk. Everyone moves around, walking and talking to different people as the walk progresses. This is a natural and relaxed way to get acquainted.

The combination of the meal and the hike works!!

In some areas, you may find a singles' walk group or a church group that does or will include walking on their schedule. 

If you live in a town without an appropriate walking group, approach a church group and suggest singles' walks. They will be more receptive if you offer to lead the groups.

You can also try Volkssport events although Volkssport seems to be more of a family group where couples or families walk together. Might meet that singles mom or dad, though, if you hang around the finish table at events. 

Walking for fitness:

Walking has many uses, not the least of which is love!
