Scotland and Wales could be explored along with the countryside of North Yorkshire.
Britain is home to a number of "fabulous and varied places to walk", according to an expert.
Maria Castellina, a spokesperson for the Ramblers, said that from the mountains of Scotland to the coastline of Wales, and the rugged countryside of North Yorkshire to the urban delights of London, there are many places to explore.
She noted that there are some destinations which are better than others during winter time, including a trek around the seaside in Cornwall or Sussex.
"Or take in the particular wildlife that is only on display in winter, such as at the Lisvane Reservoir, Cardiff, which is noted for the wildfowl that over-winter there. Or, if you don’t fancy any winter mud, explore some of Britain’s fascinating cities, such as Edinburgh or York, whose historic buildings and winding streets are perfect for wandering whatever the weather," she added.
One of Britain's favourite walks is along the Cleveland Way, which takes ramblers through the North Yorkshire Moors and the down the coastline.
It is 109 miles long, starting in the small market town of Helmsley, before meeting the coastline and passing through old fishing villages, such as Robin Hood's Bay and larger towns like Scarborough and Filey.
Ms Castellina went on to say that beginners can also enjoy getting out and about and enjoying the best of what Britain has to offer.
She said that it is best to start out with shorter, flatter walks on even terrain, with pathways around lakes and through country parks worth exploring, as these are easier on the joints and require less stamina.
The Ramblers' website is a good place to start out as this offers advice on how to get into walking, while explorers should also consider annual trip insurance if they are planning on getting out and about throughout the year.
