21 people attending
3 places left
We're back at the in North Wales for another epic weekend of mountaineering in one of our favourite mountain huts!
We'll have three great options for activities over the weekend - Multi-Pitch Trad Climbing, Scrambling, and a Challenging Mountain Walk. You'll need to sign up to one of the three options. If you are looking for gentler activities or an easier mountain walk, then this event probably isn't for you.
We'll all be coming together in the evenings in this charming mountain hut, ideally situated to access the many fantastic areas nearby such as the Llanberis Pass, Ogwen, Tremadog, the Moelwyns, and so much more!
No meals are provided this weekend, so you will need to make your own arrangements for food, however tea and coffee will be available. The hut has a full working kitchen, and a pub 5 mins away which serves good pub grub, and is a great option for the Saturday night.
Bedding is not provided - you'll need a sleeping bag and pillowcase, although pillows are provided.
Dogs: This event is not suitable for dogs.
How to book: You'll need to book and pay for a place in the bunkhouse on this page you're currently on. You'll also need to book a place on one of the three activities by following these links: Multi-Pitch Trad Climbing OR Scrambling OR Challenging Mountain Walk. Places on the activities are limited in number, so please check your preferred activity has space before you book the bunkhouse!
Participation Statement:
As a BMC Affiliate member, OutdoorLads draws your attention to the fact that climbing & scrambling are activities with a danger of personal injury or death. You should be aware of and accept these risks and be responsible for your own actions and involvement.
Please note that every person participating should be aware of (and accept) that those members perceived as ‘in charge’ or leading the event are not necessarily qualified, do not need to be qualified, and are not regarded by OutdoorLads, or themselves as ‘technical experts’ but are amateur climbers with some experience and who are happy to impart their knowledge. Any advice given should be considered with this in mind by the recipient.
Members should also understand that rock climbing is weather dependant – more so than some other outdoor activities (not least as it can be dangerous to climb on wet rock). Whilst we will do everything reasonably possible to run the event as described, the event leader may need to change the location and/or other event details to best suit the anticipated weather. We will advise members booked on, or interested, in the event of this as soon as is practical, but you should understood that in certain circumstances it may be necessary to move the event to an indoor climbing centre, make alternative plans or cancel the event all together.
What to bring
Bedding is not provided at the bunkhouse - it's alpine style bunks and you'll need your own sleeping bag. there are pillows but we'd suggest you bring your own pillowcase.
You'll need all your own food and drink, except tea and coffee.
If you don't have your own equipment then you may be able to use the OutdoorLads gear if you message the meet leader in advance. Please note there are limited group helmets available, and you wont be able to climb without one; rock boots are also essential for this event. Group gear is first come first serve!
Insect repellent is advisable to those susceptible to midges.
Sun screen is advisable, but best applied before leaving the hut so hands can be washed afterwards. Otherwise you will have greasy hands all day which will not help your climbing!
Don't forget to bring packed lunch items for Saturday & Sunday.
Food & drink
Please bring a buffet item for the table on Friday. Please also bring breakfast and lunch provisions for yourself for the weekend. A packed lunch will be needed both days as it will not be possible to leave the crag and visit shops midway through the day.
The hut has a full working kitchen for everyone's use.
Please note there will be no communal meals provided on this event, however there will be communal tea & coffee available.
The pub 5 mins away serves good pub grub, and (in my experience) most have been happy to eat there on the Saturday night.
