Mountaineering

As a Mountaineering Club, our regular club trips always include visits to mountains of Scotland, where we seek out classic multi pitch routes and great days out. Although hard to define, we would suppose that mountaineering is when all our various climbing and outdoor skills come together in a fantastic day, or multi day, mountain adventure,

We encourage our members to try and expand their skills required for mountaineering and sharing and practising these skills can form great days out themselves - snow caving, bivying,  camping etc.

The club meets are nearly always in locations where classic Scottish multi-pitch routes can be found, and we also arrange trips to the larger ranges in Europe. Although these foreign meets tend to be informally scheduled, they are usually open to all and members have gone on to use their skills on to become fully fledged alpinists. Recent trips have included:

Cogne

Chamonix

Kalymnos

Zermatt
