Events Calendar
To Sunday 04 June 2023
A visit to some of the UK's most mountainous terrain, with opportunities to climb and scramble at all grades in some of Scotland's most iconic ranges. This is the ideal meet on which to attempt a section (or full traverse) of the Cuillin Ridge with other Club members.
There is also the option to visit Lochranza on the isle of Arran on the way up which has some great climbing, walking and scrambling. Some may also choose to visit the isle of Rum with the Rum Cullins for a few days.
The meet will all be camping. Staying at the Glenbrittle campsite on Skye. The campsite does not take bookings but is large and always has space available.
