The Alpine Club, the world’s first mountaineering club, was founded in 1857.  For over 150 years, members have been at the leading edge of worldwide mountaineering development and exploration. 

With membership, experienced and aspiring alpinists benefit from a varied meets programme, regional lectures with notable guest speakers, reduced rates at many alpine huts, opportunity to apply for grants to support expeditions, significant discounts at many UK retailers, extensive networking contacts, access to the AC Library and maps - and more!

Events Calendar

George Starkey Hut Maintenance Meet.
From Friday 22 June 2018
To Sunday 24 June 2018
Friday 22 June 2018
This fantastic AC membership benefit, with its excellent location in the eastern Lake District relies on members giving a little time to keep it in good shape.
 
So a joint ABM/AC Hut Maintenance Meet will take place on the weekend of 22nd to 23rd June 2018. This meet will be organised by David Dunk and Marian Parsons (both AC members).
 
The idea is that bednights will be free to those willing to put in a day's work. There is no pressure to spend the whole weekend working: one day work and one day play is fine!
A free meal will be provided on the Saturday night. 
 
Jobs will be allocated according to what people feel they can do. 
 
Please book with Marian Parsons. (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.)
