&lt;span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);"&gt;This meet is aimed at outdoor novices and anyone else who needs to ease themselves back into climbing after a long layoff, although all club members will be very welcome. Fairy Cave is one of our favourite ‘local’ venues and is about an hour and forty minutes from Romsey.&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);"&gt;There are many lower-grade routes to learn or refresh techniques and plenty of harder routes, virtually all on amenably-angled slabs, if you want to push yourself.&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span class="s2"&gt;For this annual Dartmoor meet we will be staying at the usual “glamping value” site at Langstone Manor&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;,&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="s4"&gt;Moortown&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s4"&gt; PL19 9JZ about 2 miles east of Tavistock&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s4"&gt; on the western edge of Dartmoor in the grounds of an old manor house.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="s4"&gt;We have used this site for many years and we know the owners very well. The facilities are excellent with good shower, toilets and washing up, clothes washing and drying, as well as an on&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s4"&gt;–&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s4"&gt;site shop, bar, lounge and eating facilities. The owners are Jane and David. (See the website www.langstonemanor.co.uk). I will be booking pitches for the campers early so get your name down so I know how many pitches to book. You will need to pay on arrival for your place, which is booked in my name under Romsey Climbers. The price per person per night will be confirmed when I book.&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span class="s4"&gt;The contact details for the site are 01822 613371 and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s4"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.langstone-manor.co.uk/"&gt;&lt;span class="s5"&gt;www.langstonemanor.co.uk&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="s4"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span class="s4"&gt;As well as camping, there are some wooden Pods with power and lighting for the less hardy climbers. You will still need to bring sleeping bag, mattress and cooking gear. If you wish to book a Pod, please do this yourself as I will only be booking camping places with Jane. There will probably be a deposit to be paid for a Pod, so book early to ensure a bed for the night. Be aware that if we have to cancel at the last minute due to bad weather you may lose your deposit on a Pod booking. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s6"&gt;Please let me know if you are camping or using a Pod so I know how many camping spaces to book.&lt;/span&gt;

 

&lt;span class="s4"&gt;We advise you also bring along wet weather walking gear in case the weather turns damp as there are many miles of Dartmoor to explore if we cannot climb. All that is required is a waterproof coat, over trousers, some walking boots and a small ruck sac for food etc.&lt;/span&gt;

Anyone fancy a long weekend of warm days and dry rock? Matt’s keen to get back to Costa Blanca for a spring tune-up amongst the superb rock and ridges. The last club trip there was in 2018 and we had a great time exploring crags in the mountains and by the sea. It’s really easy to get to with flights from Bournemouth and has a very good Rockfax guidebook. Exact dates to be decided, but before committing to booking accommodation Matt needs to know who can definitely go, so let him know as soon as possible!

&lt;span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);"&gt;This meet is aimed at outdoor novices and anyone else who needs to ease themselves back into climbing after a long layoff, although all club members will be very welcome. Fairy Cave is one of our favourite ‘local’ venues and is about an hour and forty minutes from Romsey.&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);"&gt;There are many lower-grade routes to learn or refresh techniques and plenty of harder routes, virtually all on amenably-angled slabs, if you want to push yourself.&lt;/span&gt;

Organiser: John H

We’re staying at The Barn climbing hut at Capel Curig, which belongs to North London Mountaineering Club. It sleeps 30 in three bunkrooms and we’ve got the whole hut to ourselves so there will be plenty of space. The barn is set in a beautifully secluded location with wonderful mountain views and only five minutes’ walk from the Tyn Y Coed Pub and A5 lay-by (GR: SH 737572, postcode: LL24 0DT). It’s centrally situated, very handy for climbing in Ogwen and has mountain walks from the door. More details:&lt;a href="http://nlmc.co.uk/huts/guest-barn/"&gt;Guest Barn – North London Mountaineering Club (nlmc.co.uk)&lt;/a&gt;

Last year, Sam Blandford-Elliott, a professional mountaineer and climber who’s a club member and lives in North Wales, ran two courses at a discounted rate for club members during the meet and he will probably be available again in 2023. He can lead climbing/mountaineering/navigation days, depending on members preferences.

&lt;p class="s3"&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;This is the annual RoCs weekend meets to the delights of the Peak District National Park. We will be camping at the usual site near &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;Hathersage&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt; at &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;the North&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt; Lees (Peak District National Park) camp site. This is about 1 mile due North of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;Hathersage&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;. This meet is suitable for all members as it is ideal for beginners and the more experienced climbers in the club. If you have never climbed outside on real rock, we can take you up some really easy nice rock. There is a wide choice of gritstone crags to choose from, some with a few multi pitch routes, but mainly all single pitch with a short walk in.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="s3"&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;The campsite is a small friendly site with wash and shower facilities. It also has some wooden Pods if you prefer not to use a tent. All you will need for a Pod is a sleeping mat and bag plus your own cooking gear, just as you would for a tent. There&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="s2"&gt;is heating and lighting in the Pods. If you wish to use a Pod, please book this in advance yourself. A deposit may be required for a booking. Please indicate to me if you are camping or in a Pod. Booking in advance is required for camping so you will need to do this yourselves, in groups up to 5 per pitch with a car. If you decide to come with someone who has already booked their pitch with a car, you can add yourself by booking a pitch without a car. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="s3"&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;The contact details for the site are 01433 650838. or their website is www.peakdistrict.gov.uk/visiting/things-to-do/camping/camping-northlees  . To get to the campsite from &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;Hathersage&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;, go west on the A6187&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="s2"&gt;Main Street and TR before the railway bridge up &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;Jaggers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt; Lane, then TR up &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;Coggers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt; Lane for about 1/2 mile, then TR into &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;Birley&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt; Lane. After about 1/2 mile &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;North &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;Lees &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;site&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="s2"&gt;is&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt; on your left just before a left hand bend. There is a wooden gate (often closed) to enter the site. &lt;/span&gt;We will be car sharing as much as possible due to the limited parking spaces and to save fuel costs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p class="s3"&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;Hathersage&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="s2"&gt;has a couple of pubs, and we will use the Robin Hood pub in Hathersage. There are also food shops and a few Outdoor gear shops so all you need for a weekend away with RoCs. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt; If you prefer the luxury of a proper bed ????&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a name="_GoBack"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;then &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;there are B&amp;B’s, hotels and Youth Hostels in and around &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;Hathersage&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;, but book early to ensure a room. Be aware if you choose to book accommodation and we have to cancel the meet at the last moment due to extreme bad weather, you may &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;lose&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt; your deposit.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="s3"&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;Bring along some wet weather walking gear as well, (waterproof coat, over trousers and walking boots) just in case the weather turns damp and we decide to go for a bit of a bog trot up on the hills. You will also need to bring along breakfast and any cooking gear required, food for mid-day lunch as there are no food facilities at the crags. We will be eating at a pub in the evenings.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Climbing by the seaside, with many routes starting from the beach! The rock is excellent and there’s a wide range of routes, mainly trad but a few sport venues too. We’ll be based at Nicolaston Farm: &lt;a href="https://www.nicholastonfarm.co.uk/"&gt;Nicholaston Farm Touring Caravan and Campsite | Camping in Gower.&lt;/a&gt; From the site it’s a ten minute walk through dunes to the nearest crag.

A summer trip to Devon, with local resident Mandy taking us to some of her favourite crags. She could take us to a moorland crag, or we could be at the seaside – only she knows!

&lt;span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);"&gt;This meet is aimed at outdoor novices and anyone else who needs to ease themselves back into climbing after a long layoff, although all club members will be very welcome. Fairy Cave is one of our favourite ‘local’ venues and is about an hour and forty minutes from Romsey.&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);"&gt;There are many lower-grade routes to learn or refresh techniques and plenty of harder routes, virtually all on amenably-angled slabs, if you want to push yourself.&lt;/span&gt;

We’re based in the Duddon valley, an idyllic backwater away from the crowds. I’ve booked bunks for us at High Moss Cottage (grid ref SD237966, a modern climbing hut with good facilities and with some great climbing within walking distance. Twenty minutes away is Wallowbarrow, of which Rockfax says: ‘sits in a magnificent position…friendly grades…rock quality and protection are good’. Just over an hour away is Dow Crag, one of the classic Lakes big cliffs; the FRCC guidebook says: ‘first class climbing…right across the grading spectrum…a superb setting’. There are also lots of other crags within a short drive. We stayed here in 2022 and had a great time!

We’ll be sharing the chores in the hut. I’ve booked six bunks; if it looks like there are going to be more of us, I’ll see what I can arrange with the hut warden and I’ll probably need a deposit.

On this meet we’re going to explore some of the great scrambling, easy climbs and mountain walks in Snowdonia. RoCs has a copy of the excellent 2020 Rockfax book detailing hundreds of interesting routes – and because it’s Rockfax, the sun’s always shing!

We’re staying at The Barn climbing hut at Capel Curig, which belongs to North London Mountaineering Club. It sleeps 30 in three bunkrooms and we’ve got the whole hut to ourselves so there will be plenty of space. The barn is set in a beautifully secluded location with wonderful mountain views and only five minutes’ walk from the Tyn Y Coed Pub and A5 lay-by (GR: SH 737572, postcode: LL24 0DT). It’s centrally situated, very handy for scrambling and climbing in Ogwen and has mountain walks from the door.

&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;Late autumn in Spain – the rock’s warm, the beer’s cold and the pool has had eight months to warm &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;up. If you fancy a week sport climbing in a T shirt in October, this is the trip for you! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;El Chorro&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt; has dozens of crags with thousands of routes &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;RoCs has a copy of the Rockfax guidebook. W&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;e’ll&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt; explor&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;e&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;several &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;areas&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;, probably including some long (40m+) and multi-pitch routes.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;For more inspiration see &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: medium;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://mojagear.com/sport/2017/06/01/climbing-destination-guide-el-chorro-spain/"&gt;https://mojagear.com/sport/2017/06/01/climbing-destination-guide-el-chorro-spain/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial;"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

Twelve of us went in 2022 and had a brilliant time!

More details:

Getting there – Ryanair fly from Bournemouth and some of us have already booked for 15-22 October; we’ve done this route a few times and it’s been very efficient.

Car hire – I usually book cars from Malagacar, which I’ve used several times. It’s off-airport (just), the cars are a bit older than the big companies but I’ve found it to be a reliable company.

Accommodation – I’ve rented a house for the twelve members who’ve already signed up. Hannah has generously volunteered her excellent culinary skills again to cater for us in style on most evenings (we’ll eat out on at least one), but everyone is expected to help out with chores. The house is full, but some people may not be able to make it so sign up below and I’ll add you to the reserve list. And there are plenty of other accommodation options if more want to meet up to climb.

Money – we’ll have a kitty to pay for all the above, including evening meals. The total cost will probably be £450-500 (including your flights) plus climbing-specific insurance – BMC cover recommended at about £50 for the week.

I’ve booked car hire and accommodation for those who’ve given me their deposit. I’m happy to assist anyone who wants to organise another rental property nearby!

&lt;div data-canvas-width="597.0359999999997"&gt;This Annual trip to the snow clad mountains of North Wales (hopefully) will allow any RoCs member to experience some easy winter mountaineering challenges without having to travel up to Scotland.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div data-canvas-width="578.644"&gt;We have now booked the Barn hut at Capel Curig from Thursday 11th Jan to Sunday 14th January. If you wish to go on a winter hut based meet please say yes now so I can add you to the list. If you would like to go a few days earlier or stay a few days later, let me know and I will adjust the booking with the hut owners. The cost is £10 per person per night. There are bunks in several rooms so all you need to take is a sleeping bag &amp; pillow plus all your personal gear, and any food &amp; drink for breakfast &amp; lunch. We can eat in the pub and/or cook in the hut, to be decided nearer the time. Can each person bring up a small bag of wood for the stove as it may be a bit chilly.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div data-canvas-width="588.9106666666667"&gt;As it is a winter trip, bring with you suitable winter warm and waterproof clothing, a decent pair of mountaineering boots, crampons and a walking axe as a minimum set of gear in case we get that rare thing called snow. Quite often the snow does not settle (or even arrive) so then it can be a bit wet and wild. Be prepared to bring waterproof trousers and jacket and a set of dry clothes for walking and to walk to the pub in the evening.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div data-canvas-width="545.2186666666668"&gt;Patrick and I will go up Thursday morning and return Sunday afternoon. Travel plans will be confirmed nearer the time depending on who is attending. Post on the Facebook Events page if you are interested in joining the winter crew on this mad adventure full of fun, possibly some winter mountaineering and more than likely a good time in the pub and in the hut.&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);"&gt;There are many lower-grade routes to learn or refresh techniques and plenty of harder routes, virtually all on amenably-angled slabs, if you want to push yourself.&lt;/span&gt;

&lt;div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s"&gt;A long bank holiday weekend trip to a new(ish) venue for RoCs! Accommodation is arranged with a local caving society to stay at their bunkhouse for £10per person a night so £20 each (possibly less with our BMC membership). This will primarily be a trad climbing trip but there are lots of sports routes if people want to switch it up.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s"&gt;Looking forward to climbing with you &lt;span class="x3nfvp2 x1j61x8r x1fcty0u xdj266r xhhsvwb xat24cr xgzva0m xxymvpz xlup9mm x1kky2od"&gt;&lt;img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="xz74otr" src="https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/ta5/1.5/16/1f642.png" alt="🙂" width="16" height="16" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Easy stuff, hard stuff and more Camembert than is healthy. Likely plan would be to drive over using the channel tunnel and hire an airbnb for as long as we want. Will need a deposit to start booking stuff so let us know if you’re interested.

Organiser: John H

We’re staying at The Barn climbing hut at Capel Curig, which belongs to North London Mountaineering Club. It sleeps 30 in three bunkrooms and we’ve got the whole hut to ourselves so there will be plenty of space. The barn is set in a beautifully secluded location with wonderful mountain views and only five minutes’ walk from the Tyn Y Coed Pub and A5 lay-by (GR: SH 737572, postcode: LL24 0DT). It’s centrally situated, very handy for climbing in Ogwen and has mountain walks from the door. More details:&lt;a href="http://nlmc.co.uk/huts/guest-barn/"&gt;Guest Barn – North London Mountaineering Club (nlmc.co.uk)&lt;/a&gt;

Last year, Sam Blandford-Elliott, a professional mountaineer and climber who’s a club member and lives in North Wales, ran two courses at a discounted rate for club members during the meet and he will probably be available again in 2024. He can lead climbing/mountaineering/navigation days, depending on members preferences.

Who’s going?

Please feel welcome to join for a few days if the full week isn’t suitable for you. Some pre-booked camping in the plantation is also available, at the same rate as bunk beds. The 6 spots are available on a 1st come 1st served basis but currently there are an additional 10 bunks available, so it’s possible for us to increase the booking, if necessary. We’ll add your name to the bunkhouse booking when you sign up here. The bunkhouse is only half a mile from Clapham where there are AirBnBs and rooms in the New Inn pub/restaurant. There are lots of campsites (some with pods) in the area too so lots of accommodation options.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s"&gt;We will be excellently placed to access both grit and limestone, trad, sport and bouldering areas! Malham Cove is not too far away, nor is Twistleton Scar (short walk in with over 300 routes including the Chris Bonington 1st ascent of Evening Star, 3 star Severe). We will also only be about 45 minutes from Kendal Wall, should the weather not play ball.
Close to the Yorkshire 3 Peaks, Ingleton Waterfall walk and lots of open-water swimming possibilities too!&lt;/div&gt;

This is about 1 mile due North of Hathersage. This meet is suitable for all members as it is ideal for beginners and the more experienced climbers in the club. If you have never climbed outside on real rock, we can take you up some really easy nice rock. There is a wide choice of gritstone crags to choose from, some with a few multi pitch routes, but mainly all single pitch with a short walk in.

The wash facilities have had a massive upgrade so now the campsite is very posh. There are Pods as well as tent pitches available and a couple of camper van slots as well. I will be camping so will book a slot for me and anyone who travels up with me. Book your slot on the North Lees website stating if you have a car or just need a tent slot. If you wish to use a Pod, please book this in advance yourself. A deposit may be required for a booking. Please indicate to me if you are camping or in a Pod. At the moment booking in advance is required for camping so you will need to do this yourselves, in groups up to 5 per pitch with a car. If you decide to come with someone who has already booked their pitch with a car, you can add yourself by booking a pitch without a car. Also book a camper van slot or a Pod for yourself if required. Air B &amp; B, bunk rooms or pub rooms are available in Hathersage if you do not use North Lees.

The contact details for the site are 01433 650838. To get to the campsite from Hathersage, go west on the A6187  Main Street and TR before the railway bridge up Jaggers Lane, then TR up Coggers Lane for about 1/2 mile, then TR into Birley Lane. After about 1/2 mile North Lees site  is on your left just before a left hand bend. There is a wooden gate to enter the site. We will be car sharing as much as possible due to the limited parking spaces and to save fuel costs. Hathersage has a couple of pubs, and we will use the Robin Hood pub in Hathersage. There are also food shops and a few Outdoor gear shops so all you need for a weekend away with RoCs.

Bring along some wet weather walking gear as well, (water proof coat, over trousers and walking boots) just in case the weather turns damp and we decide to go for a bit of a bog trot up on the hills. You will also need to bring along breakfast and any cooking gear required, food for mid-day lunch as there are no food facilities at the crags. We will be eating at a pub in the evenings.

Anyone wishing to attend this meet can you please post on the Facebook Event page your intention, including when you plan to travel down, and which nights you plan to stay. We will be trying to car share as much as possible to save on fuel costs.

This is our annual jaunt to Dartmoor, where we will be staying at Langstone Manor, Moortown PL19 9JZ about 2 miles east of Tavistock. This is on the western edge of Dartmoor in the grounds of an old manor house and is our most posh of campsites. We go every year and are always welcomed by the team there. You can choose to camp in quality conditions, or use a variety of Pods, from basic to posh. The facilities are excellent with good shower, toilets and washing up, clothes washing and drying, as well as an on-site shop, bar, lounge and eating facilities. The owners are Jane and David. (See the website &lt;a href="http://www.langstone-manor.co.uk/"&gt;www.langstonemanor.co.uk&lt;/a&gt; ).

The contact details for the site are 01822 613371 and www.langstonemanor.co.uk. If you wish to book a Pod, please do this yourself as I will only be booking camping places with Jane. There will probably be a deposit to be paid for a Pod, so book early to ensure a bed for the night. Be aware that if we have to cancel at the last minute due to bad weather you may lose your deposit on a Pod booking.
I will be booking some pitches as usual, so you only need to let me know numbers and you can pay the campsite on the day of arrival. Last year we had about 12 members attending and we were charged £7 per night each. If you wish to use a Pod, Camper van or other accommodation please make that booking in advance your self. I will nearer the time make bookings for the restaurant we use on site once numbers are confirmed.

The climbing on Dartmoor is stunning at Dewerstone, from easy to silly depending on your skills. Other crags are there (Sheeps Tor, Hay Tor, Hound Tor) so plenty of opportunity for all grades of climbers. This meet is ideal for beginners and the more experienced climbers so if you are new to outside rock climbing it is an ideal meet for you. Make sure you bring suitable food and cooking gear for breakfast and also food for mid-day as there are no facilities near the climbing areas for food and drink. We will be using the bar or a pub for evening food and drink. If it is a bit damp on the day there are loads of wild walking areas on Dartmoor, so bring your walking gear as well!

Anyone wishing to attend this meet can you please post on the Facebook Event page your intention, including when you plan to travel down, and which nights you plan to stay. We will be trying to car share as much as possible to save on fuel costs. We hope to negotiate a single person price per night by sharing pitches. I will provisionally book places soon, so will need to know the final camping numbers nearer the time to ensure there is enough spaces for all the members to be together.

&lt;ul&gt;
 	&lt;li&gt;This is a weekend meet with campsite to be decided but can easily be done as a day trip (Portland is 1hr 30mins from Romsey).&lt;/li&gt;
 	&lt;li&gt;The aim will be to head to the quieter areas of Portland (such as The Lost Valley on the east side) with options to head elsewhere should people wish.&lt;/li&gt;
 	&lt;li&gt;There are a good number of easier grade 3, 4 and 5 slabs available, with plenty of top roping options. Or harder grades can be targeted, depending on what people wish to do.&lt;/li&gt;
 	&lt;li&gt;Bouldering is also an option.&lt;/li&gt;
 	&lt;li&gt;Options for a swim in the sea at Ope Cove if the weather is nice.&lt;/li&gt;
 	&lt;li&gt;The plan will also be to stop at the Chesil Chippie after the days climbing for fish and chips on the beach (or a pint at The Cove).&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p class="s3"&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;A weekend meet to the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;rugged coastline near to St Davids Head&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;This meet is suitable for all members as it is ideal for beginners and also the more experienced climbers in the club. If you have never climbed outside on real rock, we can take you up some really nice easy rock. There is a wide choice of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;sea cliffs&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt; to choose from, mainly all single pitch with a short walk in.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt; You will need to be ok with abseiling as most of the climbing areas are approached from the top of the cliffs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt; You will be able to stop at the bottom without getting wet! We will be car sharing as much as possible to save fuel costs. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;St Davids has&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="s2"&gt;a couple of pubs, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;and some &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;food shops. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;There is not much else there except of course the Cathedral which is pretty stunning. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class="s3"&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;Bring along some wet weather walking gear (waterproof coat, overtrousers and walking boots) just in case the weather turns damp and we decide to go for a bit of a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;stroll along the coastal path&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="s2"&gt;. You will also need to bring along breakfast and any cooking gear required, food for mid-day lunch as there are no food facilities at the crags.

&lt;/span&gt;In 2022 we stayed at a campsite at Porthclais, which is a 20 minute walk from St Davids. The site is Porthclais Farm site SA62 6RR and you can book a pitch on line by going to their website &lt;a href="https://www.porthclais-farm-campsite.co.uk/camping/"&gt;Camping – Porthclais Campsite (porthclais-farm-campsite.co.uk)&lt;/a&gt; and paying a 10% deposit to secure a place.&lt;/p&gt;

There’s something for everyone, with plenty of Trad climbing and Bouldering on the finest gritstone at both the Roaches and Hen Cloud.  The Trad ranges from easy to Extreme and is mainly single pitch, with a handful of two pitch climbs. We’ll probably stay at Hazel Barrow Farm (&lt;a href="https://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=14236"&gt;Hazel Barrow Farm Camping And Glamping , Leek Campsites, Staffordshire (ukcampsite.co.uk)&lt;/a&gt;), which has camping, glamping, a bunkhouse or even a cottage if you’re feeling flush! And it gets better, because Pete’s discovered that BMC members (that’s us) get a 5% discount – what more incentive could you need?

We’re based in the Duddon valley, an idyllic backwater away from the crowds. I’ve booked bunks for us at High Moss Cottage (grid ref SD237966, a modern climbing hut with good facilities and with some great climbing within walking distance. There’s no phone signal and isn’t for miles – bliss! We stayed here in 2022 and 2023 and had a great time.

Twenty minutes away is Wallowbarrow, of which Rockfax says: ‘sits in a magnificent position…friendly grades…rock quality and protection are good’. Just over an hour away is Dow Crag, one of the classic Lakes big cliffs; the FRCC guidebook says: ‘first class climbing…right across the grading spectrum…a superb setting’. There are also lots of other crags nearby. Because it’s such a quiet area most of the routes see little traffic and can be a bit green, so you can feel a bit like an explorer.

We’ll be sharing the chores in the hut. I’ve booked six bunks; if it looks like there are going to be more of us, I’ll see what I can arrange with the hut warden and I’ll probably need a deposit.

We’re staying at The Barn climbing hut at Capel Curig, which belongs to North London Mountaineering Club. It sleeps 30 in three bunkrooms and we’ve got the whole hut to ourselves so there will be plenty of space. The barn is set in a beautifully secluded location with wonderful mountain views and only five minutes’ walk from the Tyn Y Coed Pub and A5 lay-by (GR: SH 737572, postcode: LL24 0DT). It’s centrally situated, very handy for climbing in Ogwen and has mountain walks from the door.

&lt;div dir="auto"&gt;Here’s where we will be staying. It’s a really nice little hotel, slightly away from the busy main climbing hub of Massouri, but an easy walk to lots of nice restaurants.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div dir="auto"&gt;I’ve booked six rooms, and the cost is €45 for single occupancy, or €60 if you are happy to share. Breakfast is included.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div dir="auto"&gt;I’m bringing my non climbing partner with me – there’s loads of active stuff to do on the island, or there’s plenty of beach life and lovely cafes.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div dir="auto"&gt;I think we may be able to get extra rooms on top of the ones I’ve booked, but obviously if you can get in early you’ll be guaranteed somewhere to kip.&lt;/div&gt;

The trip is a bit later than usual to allow the use of the hut in Capel Curig.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-weight: 400;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: inherit;"&gt;We have now booked the Barn hut at Capel Curig from Thursday 6th March to Sunday 9th March. If you wish to go on a winter hut based meet please say yes so I can add you to the list. The cost is £10 per person per night. There are bunks in several rooms so all you need to take is a sleeping bag &amp; pillow plus all your personal gear, and any food &amp; drink for breakfast &amp; lunch. We can eat in the pub and/or cook in the hut, to be decided nearer the time. Can each person bring up a small bag of wood for the stove as it may be a bit chilly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-weight: 400;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: inherit;"&gt;Bring with you suitable winter warm and waterproof clothing, a decent pair of mountaineering boots, (crampons and a walking axe are optional in case we get that rare thing called snow). Quite often the snow does not settle (or even arrive) so then it can be a bit wet and wild. Be prepared and bring waterproof trousers and jacket and a set of dry clothes for walking and to walk to the pub in the evening.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-weight: 400;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: inherit;"&gt;Patrick and I will go up Thursday morning and return Sunday afternoon. We may well decide to camp nearby, if it is not too bad weather wise. Travel plans will be confirmed nearer the time depending on who is attending. Post on the Facebook Events page if you are interested in joining the winter crew on this mad adventure full of fun, possibly some winter mountaineering and more than likely a good time in the pub and in the hut.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

There are flights from Bournemouth with Ryanair for around £200, this includes 20kg bag allowance. We will stay in Calpe, which has great access to 3 fantastic climbing areas, Sella, Aleta and Sierra de Toix. In order to book accommodation I will need to know who is keen to go, and may need a deposit.

This is about 1 mile due North of Hathersage. This meet is suitable for all members as it is ideal for beginners and the more experienced climbers in the club. If you have never climbed outside on real rock, we can take you up some really easy nice rock. There is a wide choice of gritstone crags to choose from, some with a few multi pitch routes, but mainly all single pitch with a short walk in.

The wash facilities have had a massive upgrade so now the campsite is very posh. There are Pods as well as tent pitches available and a couple of camper van slots as well. I will be camping so will book a slot for me and anyone who travels up with me. Book your slot on the North Lees website stating if you have a car or just need a tent slot. If you wish to use a Pod, please book this in advance yourself. A deposit may be required for a booking. Please indicate to me if you are camping or in a Pod. At the moment booking in advance is required for camping so you will need to do this yourselves, in groups up to 5 per pitch with a car. If you decide to come with someone who has already booked their pitch with a car, you can add yourself by booking a pitch without a car. Also book a camper van slot or a Pod for yourself if required. Air B &amp; B, bunk rooms or pub rooms are available in Hathersage if you do not use North Lees.

The contact details for the site are 01433 650838. To get to the campsite from Hathersage, go west on the A6187  Main Street and TR before the railway bridge up Jaggers Lane, then TR up Coggers Lane for about 1/2 mile, then TR into Birley Lane. After about 1/2 mile North Lees site  is on your left just before a left hand bend. There is a wooden gate to enter the site. We will be car sharing as much as possible due to the limited parking spaces and to save fuel costs. Hathersage has a couple of pubs, and we will use the Robin Hood pub in Hathersage. There are also food shops and a few Outdoor gear shops so all you need for a weekend away with RoCs.

Bring along some wet weather walking gear as well, (water proof coat, over trousers and walking boots) just in case the weather turns damp and we decide to go for a bit of a bog trot up on the hills. You will also need to bring along breakfast and any cooking gear required, food for mid-day lunch as there are no food facilities at the crags. We will be eating at a pub in the evenings.

Anyone wishing to attend this meet can you please post on the Facebook Event page your intention, including when you plan to travel down, and which nights you plan to stay. We will be trying to car share as much as possible to save on fuel costs.

This is our annual jaunt to Dartmoor, where we will be staying at Langstone Manor, Moortown PL19 9JZ about 2 miles east of Tavistock. This is on the western edge of Dartmoor in the grounds of an old manor house and is our most posh of campsites. We go every year and are always welcomed by the team there. You can choose to camp in quality conditions, or use a variety of Pods, from basic to posh. The facilities are excellent with good shower, toilets and washing up, clothes washing and drying, as well as an on-site shop, bar, lounge and eating facilities. The owners are Jane and David. (See the website &lt;a href="http://www.langstone-manor.co.uk/"&gt;www.langstonemanor.co.uk&lt;/a&gt; ).

The contact details for the site are 01822 613371 and www.langstonemanor.co.uk. If you wish to book a Pod, please do this yourself as I will only be booking camping places with Jane. There will probably be a deposit to be paid for a Pod, so book early to ensure a bed for the night. Be aware that if we have to cancel at the last minute due to bad weather you may lose your deposit on a Pod booking.
I will be booking some pitches as usual, so you only need to let me know numbers and you can pay the campsite on the day of arrival. Last year we had about 12 members attending and we were charged £7 per night each. If you wish to use a Pod, Camper van or other accommodation please make that booking in advance your self. I will nearer the time make bookings for the restaurant we use on site once numbers are confirmed.

The climbing on Dartmoor is stunning at Dewerstone, from easy to silly depending on your skills. Other crags are there (Sheeps Tor, Hay Tor, Hound Tor) so plenty of opportunity for all grades of climbers. This meet is ideal for beginners and the more experienced climbers so if you are new to outside rock climbing it is an ideal meet for you. Make sure you bring suitable food and cooking gear for breakfast and also food for mid-day as there are no facilities near the climbing areas for food and drink. We will be using the bar or a pub for evening food and drink. If it is a bit damp on the day there are loads of wild walking areas on Dartmoor, so bring your walking gear as well!

Anyone wishing to attend this meet can you please post on the Facebook Event page your intention, including when you plan to travel down, and which nights you plan to stay. We will be trying to car share as much as possible to save on fuel costs. We hope to negotiate a single person price per night by sharing pitches. I will provisionally book places soon, so will need to know the final camping numbers nearer the time to ensure there is enough spaces for all the members to be together.

Organiser: John H

We’re staying at The Barn climbing hut at Capel Curig, which belongs to North London Mountaineering Club. It sleeps 30 in three bunkrooms and we’ve got the whole hut to ourselves so there will be plenty of space. The barn is set in a beautifully secluded location with wonderful mountain views and only five minutes’ walk from the Tyn Y Coed Pub and A5 lay-by (GR: SH 737572, postcode: LL24 0DT). It’s centrally situated, very handy for climbing in Ogwen and has mountain walks from the door. More details:&lt;a href="http://nlmc.co.uk/huts/guest-barn/"&gt;Guest Barn – North London Mountaineering Club (nlmc.co.uk)&lt;/a&gt;

Last year, Sam Blandford-Elliott, a professional mountaineer and climber who’s a club member and lives in North Wales, ran two courses at a discounted rate for club members during the meet and he will probably be available again in 2025. He can lead climbing/mountaineering/navigation days, depending on members preferences.

We’re based in the Duddon valley, an idyllic backwater away from the crowds. I’ve booked bunks for us at High Moss Cottage (grid ref SD237966, a modern climbing hut with good facilities and with some great climbing within walking distance. There’s no phone signal and you’ve got to go miles to get one – bliss! We’ve stayed here a few times and always have a good time.

Twenty minutes away is Wallowbarrow, of which Rockfax says: ‘sits in a magnificent position…friendly grades…rock quality and protection are good’. Just over an hour away is Dow Crag, one of the classic Lakes big cliffs; the FRCC guidebook says: ‘first class climbing…right across the grading spectrum…a superb setting’. There are also lots of other crags nearby. Because it’s such a quiet area most of the routes see little traffic and can be a bit green, so you can feel a bit like an explorer.

We’ll be sharing the chores in the hut. I’ve booked six bunks; if it looks like there are going to be more of us, I’ll see what I can arrange with the hut warden and I’ll probably need a deposit.

This is about 1 mile due North of Hathersage. This meet is suitable for all members as it is ideal for beginners and the more experienced climbers in the club. If you have never climbed outside on real rock, we can take you up some really easy nice rock. There is a wide choice of gritstone crags to choose from, some with a few multi pitch routes, but mainly all single pitch with a short walk in.

The wash facilities have had a massive upgrade so now the campsite is very posh. There are Pods as well as tent pitches available and a couple of camper van slots as well. I will be camping so will book a slot for me and anyone who travels up with me. Book your slot on the North Lees website stating if you have a car or just need a tent slot. If you wish to use a Pod, please book this in advance yourself. A deposit may be required for a booking. Please indicate to me if you are camping or in a Pod. At the moment booking in advance is required for camping so you will need to do this yourselves, in groups up to 5 per pitch with a car. If you decide to come with someone who has already booked their pitch with a car, you can add yourself by booking a pitch without a car. Also book a camper van slot or a Pod for yourself if required. Air B &amp; B, bunk rooms or pub rooms are available in Hathersage if you do not use North Lees.

The contact details for the site are 01433 650838. To get to the campsite from Hathersage, go west on the A6187  Main Street and TR before the railway bridge up Jaggers Lane, then TR up Coggers Lane for about 1/2 mile, then TR into Birley Lane. After about 1/2 mile North Lees site  is on your left just before a left hand bend. There is a wooden gate to enter the site. We will be car sharing as much as possible due to the limited parking spaces and to save fuel costs. Hathersage has a couple of pubs, and we will use the Robin Hood pub in Hathersage. There are also food shops and a few Outdoor gear shops so all you need for a weekend away with RoCs.

Bring along some wet weather walking gear as well, (water proof coat, over trousers and walking boots) just in case the weather turns damp and we decide to go for a bit of a bog trot up on the hills. You will also need to bring along breakfast and any cooking gear required, food for mid-day lunch as there are no food facilities at the crags. We will be eating at a pub in the evenings.

Anyone wishing to attend this meet can you please post on the Facebook Event page your intention, including when you plan to travel down, and which nights you plan to stay. We will be trying to car share as much as possible to save on fuel costs.

Who fancies an autumn week in Spain? The rock’s warm, the beer’s cold and the pool has had eight months to warm up. If you fancy a week sport climbing, via ferratas and hiking in a T shirt in October, this is the trip for you! El Chorro has dozens of crags with thousands of routes and RoCs has a copy of the Rockfax guidebook. We’ll explore several areas, probably including some long (30m+) and multi-pitch routes. For more inspiration see &lt;span style="color: #467886;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="https://mojagear.com/sport/2017/06/01/climbing-destination-guide-el-chorro-spain/"&gt;https://mojagear.com/sport/2017/06/01/climbing-destination-guide-el-chorro-spain/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.

Eleven of us went in 2023 and had a brilliant time!

Ive booked a house with a pool for the nine of us who’ve signed up; there’s still room for one or two more or you could stay nearby and join us to climb, which is what Jamie’s doing. Hannah has generously volunteered her excellent culinary skills again to cater for us in style, but everyone is expected to help with kitchen chores. Most of us are flying Ryanair from Bournemouth and some from other airports.

The cost should be about £300 plus flights and insurance. If you want to go, get in touch with me directly and let me have your deposit of £150.

Organiser: John H

We’re staying at The Barn climbing hut at Capel Curig, which belongs to North London Mountaineering Club. It sleeps 30 in three bunkrooms and we’ve got the whole hut to ourselves so there will be plenty of space. The barn is set in a beautifully secluded location with wonderful mountain views and only five minutes’ walk from the Tyn Y Coed Pub and A5 lay-by (GR: SH 737572, postcode: LL24 0DT). It’s centrally situated, very handy for climbing in Ogwen and has mountain walks from the door.

Who fancies an autumn week in Spain? The rock’s warm, the beer’s cold and the pool has had eight months to warm up. If you fancy a week sport climbing, via ferratas and hiking in a T shirt in October, this is the trip for you! El Chorro has dozens of crags with thousands of routes and RoCs has a copy of the Rockfax guidebook. We’ll explore several areas, probably including some long (30m+) and multi-pitch routes. For more inspiration see &lt;span style="color: #467886;"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;a href="https://mojagear.com/sport/2017/06/01/climbing-destination-guide-el-chorro-spain/"&gt;https://mojagear.com/sport/2017/06/01/climbing-destination-guide-el-chorro-spain/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;.

Eleven of us went in 2025 and had a brilliant time!

The house I’ve booked for the ten of us who’ve already signed up is full, but there’s plenty of good accommodation nearby. Most of us are flying Ryanair from Bournemouth.</text></description><dtstart><date>2026-10-10</date></dtstart><dtend><date>2026-10-18</date></dtend><categories><parameters><language><text>en-GB</text></language></parameters><text>Outdoor</text></categories><contact/><sequence><integer>0</integer></sequence><url><uri>https://www.romseyclimbers.org.uk/wordpress/event/spain-el-chorro-2026/</uri></url><x-cost-type><unknown>free</unknown></x-cost-type><x-wp-images-url><unknown>thumbnail;https://www.romseyclimbers.org.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/85B05321-5686-4163-B333-26C164FD0CDA-e1667486432226-150x150.jpeg;150;150;1,medium;https://www.romseyclimbers.org.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/85B05321-5686-4163-B333-26C164FD0CDA-e1667486432226-300x101.jpeg;300;101;1,large;https://www.romseyclimbers.org.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/85B05321-5686-4163-B333-26C164FD0CDA-e1667486432226-1024x345.jpeg;1024;345;1,full;https://www.romseyclimbers.org.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/85B05321-5686-4163-B333-26C164FD0CDA-e1667486432226.jpeg;1536;517;</unknown></x-wp-images-url></properties></vevent><vevent><properties><uid><text>ai1ec-8643@www.romseyclimbers.org.uk/wordpress</text></uid><dtstamp><date-time>2026-03-14T05:11:45Z</date-time></dtstamp><summary><text>Portland Bouldering 2</text></summary><description><text>&lt;div class="ai1ec-event-avatar alignleft timely"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.romseyclimbers.org.uk/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/462840871_1760618594477489_8757093088272748035_n-225x300.jpg" width="225" height="300" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="xdj266r x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs"&gt;The second trip to sunny Portland&lt;br class="html-br" /&gt;(the re-created event)&lt;/div&gt;
