Welcome to UCLUMC
...in the heart of the city experience the thrill of climbing (buildering: optional)
To new guys starting in September or to those of you already at UCL with a desire to join our club.... Have a browse around our website. If you have any questions or just fancy getting out climbing, contact one of the committee or have a look on the message board (a link to it is on the links page).
Everyone involved in the club is passionate about something: keeping fit at one of London’s 3 fantastic climbing walls; getting a breath of fresh air in the great outdoors; finding themselves at the top of an exhilarating cliff face (having climbed up it!); walking through wind, rain or snow; or having a pint and listening to a good story…
We arrange a number of meets throughout the year, at weekends, during UCL terms; we go away to various climbing areas in England and Wales.
Whilst our main focus is climbing, if you're interested in other things mountaineering-y (for example, walking or ice climbing) just let us know and we'll see what we/you can organise. You can apply for Expedition Grants from UCL and Winter/Alpine courses, First Aid courses or SPA training.
The Mountaineering Club is a fantastic place to meet like-minded people and arranging your own trips away to more exotic (and fair-weathered) places. Last summer people headed off to Font (Paris), Austria and Arco (Northern Italy) and more trips are already in the pipelines. Members of the club are even planning a climbing trip to South Africa in July 2008.
As a member of UCLUMC you will have affiliate membership to the BMC and as such will have access to all the great resources it provides.

The BMC (British Mountaineering Council) is the representative body that exists to protect the freedoms and promote the interests of climbers, hill walkers and mountaineers, including ski-mountaineers. The BMC recognises that climbing, hill walking and mountaineering are activities with a danger of personal injury or death. Participants in these activities should be aware of and accept these risks and be responsible for their own actions.
