WELCOME TO
SURBITON & KINGSTON
MOUNTAINEERING CLUB
FOUNDED IN 1980
WHO WE ARE
Based in South West London we are a club of like minded people with a love of adventure and the outdoors centred around climbing and mountaineering.
Having been around for over 42 years, there is a wealth of experience and a diverse set of climbing interests within the club. So whether you enjoy climbing at the wall, or you prefer getting out on some real rock, snow and ice, you'll always find willing climbing partners at SKMC.
THERE'S A LOT GOING ON
There's a full calendar of outdoor trips, and a weekly get together at the White Spider climbing wall.
New faces are always welcome.
MEETS
The club has a diverse and active membership spanning all backgrounds and ages and during the course of the year around 20 organised meets take place. These range from winter hut trips for the brave and hardy - often with ice routes (weather permitting), to summer camping trips all around the country. During the summer months there are two trips a month with meet venues ranging from The Cornish coast to the Lake District and everywhere in between. Our meets calendar is publicly readable as are our meet reports so take look and see what we get up to.
OUR MEMBERS
We have grown every year for the last 7 years and had more than 120 members at the end of 2019. Our members have a wide range of interests, experience and ages living all over the country with a core group of members in and around Surrey. Meets are always well attended and once the climbing stops you'll find our members to be very sociable, whether it be around the campfire or in a local pub.
BMC AFFILIATED
We are also recognised by and affiliated to the BMC (British Mountaineering Council) which benefits all our members and the outdoor community as a whole.
