Mountain Walking Club

We run weekly walks every Saturday venturing across the length and breadth of Snowdonia National Park, from the Carneddau in the north right down to Cadair Idris in the south. Catering to a wide range of skill levels, the UMWC sees it all - weather permitting! We run a group for every ability:

• Lowland - A relaxed group for those without much or any prior experience, but are interested in having a great day out in the mountains.

• Hill - New again this year,  for those looking for more of a challenge, Hill Group completes a broader array of walks and occasional scrambles whilst still maintaining a relaxed atmosphere.

• Mountain/Scramble - For more experienced walkers willing to push themselves, Mountain/ Scramble Group do longer, more challenging routes along with scrambles.

Throughout the year we run a mixture of trips, events, and training across the UK! These are open to all registered members and are usually subsidised using the clubs own funds.  

• Away Trips - Five days in the mountains getting soaked to your skin with great people and a warm bunk at the end of the day. 

• Summer Trips - Multi-day hikes, serious scrambles, and wild camps. 

• Night Walks & Bothy trips - Starry nights and sunrises + good company = happiness.

• Social events - fundraising events, Christmas meal, film nights and more.

• First Aid & Mountain Skills courses
