  • Ennerdale

    Ennerdale

    The club welcomed some new members along for this trip – staying at Ennerdale Youth Hostel. Perhaps the quietest area of the Lake District, it certainly felt like the wettest and windiest over this long weekend. It could not have rained any harder while we were scrambling up Haystacks. A lovely place to stay –…

    The annual winter trip returned in 2023 with a week spent near Fort William. The day on Ben Nevis was described as the most exhausting mountain day ever. Ever! There was even a guest appearance by the aurora borealis.

  • Knoydart

    Knoydart

    A club trip to Knoydart took place in October 2021 after a twelve month delay. It was possibly the wettest place anyone had ever been but this didn’t stop it being a great experience (and a cancelled ferry meant we even got to stay an extra day). The highlight was a big day out over…

  • Cadair Idris

    Cadair Idris

    A weekend camping near Dolgellau was the limit of what we could do in the summer of 2021. A linear walk along the full Cadair Idris ridge on Saturday was followed by a wet Sunday explore of the Mawddach Estuary to keep away from the worst of the weather.
