York Mountaineering Club

arm welcome to new members:- the only requirement is an interest in pursuing hill-going or climbing. Opportunities to develop outdoor skills can arise informally through participation. The Club also runs occasional skills courses and first aid courses. Although there will be many trips a year which will be advertised on the website, other trips are organised in the pub on Thursday. This may be a day out rock climbing in the Peak District or Yorkshire, or hill walking in the Lakes or Dales. There are regular weekend trips to Scotland the Lakes and Wales for both walking, climbing and mountain biking. Thursday night is the Socials night and is usually preceded by a visit to the Leeds, York or Harrogate climbing wall or a local crag followed by the odd jar in the The Knavesmire Pub, Albemarle Road, York, YO23 1ER. We meet in the pub at 10pm. The way to get started is to come along on a Thursday evening, and then join an outing.
