Find a walking partner near you
Walking is easier to stick with when someone is waiting for you. A walking buddy near me can turn a solo routine you keep skipping into something you look forward to. Whether you want brisk morning laps or a slow evening stroll, GoMate helps you find a walking partner who keeps a similar pace and schedule.
Browse walking plans posted by people nearby, from a morning walk partner at 6 AM to an evening walk group after work. Request to join, the host approves, and you chat to fix the meeting point. No club fees, no pressure, just people to walk with who want to move a little more.

How do I find a walking group near me?
Sign in to GoMate at gomate.info/app and browse plans nearby. Walking plans show the time, pace and approximate distance. Request to join one, and once the host approves you, you can chat with the group and agree on a meeting point.
Can I find a regular walking buddy, not just one walk?
Yes. Many hosts post repeating walks, like weekday mornings. If you get along with someone, you can keep joining their plans or host your own regular walk and approve the same people each time.
Is it okay if I am a slow walker?
Absolutely. Hosts usually mention the pace in the plan. Look for relaxed or beginner walks, or host one yourself and say it is an easy pace so the right people request to join.
