Keswick Mountaineering Club

Overview

We also hold many weekend meets, both in the Lake District and in other places such as Scotland, Northumberland, the Peak District, Wales and Cornwall/Devon. Members will want to be out climbing whenever the sun is shining. It is easy to find another member able to climb with you by using our “Partner wanted” Forum or our Facebook Group. During the summer months, we often run a meet in the Alps, the Dolomites, and/or Scotland (e.g. Ben Nevis or the Cuillin Ridge on Skye). In Scotland (where the weather is less dependable) we often use the poor weather days for some scrambling. In the winter our regular Tuesday evening meets move to the indoor Kong Adventure wall at Keswick. Between late October and mid-April, we usually run a meet for a week or two somewhere sunny (e.g. Kalymnos, Costa Blanca, Cyprus, or Sicily), so that members can get outside to climb in the dry. We sometimes run weekend/week meets in Scotland or Norway for ice climbing
