Who we are, where we are
and what we do
We are a Dundee based climbing club with a membership
of about 220. Most of our members live in or around Tayside but we have
members from all parts of Scotland and farther afield.
Historically, the club has had members interested in all kinds of mountaineering;
from technical rock and winter climbing, skiing and all levels of hillwalking.
Nowadays, most of our members are primarily hillwalkers going out into
the Scottish mountains in all seasons and weathers. Many members joined
as novice fair-weather walkers and have developed their skills on club
meets, gaining experience and confidence in navigation, poor conditions
and in using ice axe and crampons. We have a small group of active rock
climbers in the club who are always keen to pass on their love of steeper
ground.
Club outdoor meets are organised as Day Meets and
Weekend Meets with sporadic trips abroad
to the greater ranges.
We have a regular indoor meet programme involving
lectures and slide presentations and an annual dinner.
The Grampian Club has two superbly situated properties,
a basic but comfortable hut in Glen Etive and a well-appointed cottage
in Torridon for the sole use of members.

We welcome new members who would like to join us in the hills. If you
would like to contact the club please see the how to
