Club Meets and Events
80 events planned in 2023.
We run a varied programme of activities including regular outdoor meets both in the UK and abroad.
Also, we meet every Wednesday evening for climbing and bouldering at local crags (summer), climbing and bouldering walls (winter) or social events.

Our Hut in Snowdonia
We have our own hut in North Snowdonia for members to stay overnight for a modest fee.
It is also available for BMC Affiliated Clubs to book.
The hut was purchased by members over forty years ago so that the club could have a base in Snowdonia. In recent years we have modernised it.
Accommodates up to 22 people.
