I love women who are just as happy getting mucky in the great out doors as they are being all glamorous for a posh night out.

Mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, wild swimming etc are you happy getting mucky or do you like your creature comforts to much ?

What's your activity and no dogging doesn't count

nope not me. I don’t own all weather clothes. I enjoy walking and that’s as outside as I get. I wore jeans for the first time in about 2 years this week as it was pure necessity due to where I was and it being so cold and wet.

Jeans are one of the most awful cloths for making you cold when wet.

Walking is good though and definitely an outdoor pursuit so well done you

Out door clothing can be had really reasonable (yes you can spend a fortune) but they make you 20x more comfy than the wrong clothing.

Ps if the worst comes to the worst, skin is waterproof

I love cycling and walking and being outside much more than being glamorous.

I prefer trainers and boots to high heels and would rather be naked than in a dress.

I won't say no to a 5 star Hotel though rather than camping

My horses keep me out doors mostly, but I love shooting, offroading and I'm not shy when it comes to climbing trees!!

Yep, I like to push myself (quite literally) to explore the great outdoors in ma wheelchair. Over the summer, I went across country, got stuck in the mud, in a gateway, fell out into the ditch and really put the chair through its paces (I need new front casters now!) but the challenge of it all was fun. Every person I passed thought I was insane, the horses and cows were very curious and I'm just sad that I can't go out like that for a while. Post op recovery, coupled with zero rim grip in wet weather means I'm staying put for now

I thought I was the only adult who climbed trees when you didn't have to for your job.

Broke my wrist doing it (well the fall part not the climbing) and tbf alcohol was involved

I go walking in the local Forestry Park and our local Nature Reserves. I’m fairly outdoorsy.

Happiest in jeans, trainers and a cagoule with the wind in my hair than being dressed up.

Nah, the scooter would be boring - no challenge physically and at least the ones you can buy in shops are very NOT offroad friendly. I took a mobility scooter offroad in Mallorca and its not a comfortable ride

You can buy motor attachments to clip to manual chair but they cost a fortune and again, I like the physical challenge of hauling myself 10k plus over places where wheelchairs aren't supposed to go

I grew up in the country and.live being outdoors. Ill be going for a walk today by the sea. Sailing is my passion and I would be out today except for the dad taxi being required. I often sail alone and am happybto take new people out. Also love hiking, kayaking, I used to ride when I kid and keep meaning to have another go at that.

I would like to do some hiking in mountains.

I enjoy the outdoors and prefer casual clothes to dressing up although do like an occasion to dress up

Mainly walking as I’ve let my fitness go in recent years but still enjoy getting at least my 10,000 steps most days Walking through the farm nearby

I love hiking, wild swimming, and camping. Very, very occasionally I'll do some rock climbing or canoeing too.

It turns out some of my Fab female friends are great walkers. Not just when the suns shining either.

I was an adrenalin junkie drifter..went from one outdoor pursuit to another in search of the awe of this world. Still am to an extent. I ve flown through the skies beneath a silken canopy...dropped into the bowels of the earth, run mountains and rivers and been beneath the seas surface....
