UBMC will soon be returning to the majestic sea cliffs of Portland, renowned for excellent sport climbing, with loads of high-star routes in the low-to-mid grades. There is also fantastic bouldering and we will be bringing plenty of pads for those who prefer to boulder.
This trip is open to climbers of all levels; if you've never climbed outdoors before this is the perfect place to start!
Tickets includes transport, accommodation, two breakfasts, Saturday dinner, and plenty of alcohol. Drivers will be reimbursed for petrol.
Membership is required for all trips and covers your climbing insurance.
I heard it through the grapevine that we're going to Cornwall for some trad climbing...

Trips are arguably the highlight of UBMC membership. Throughout the year we run numerous great value weekend trips to different locations around the UK, open to all abilities. These provide a great opportunity to put your training into practice on some beautiful real rock; to socialise and properly get to know other club members; and to escape from work and the city to some stunning natural landscapes of the UK.
We depart from the back of the SU building at around 6pm Friday and return late night Sunday, staying two nights in a Scout hut or bunkhouse. The club provides breakfast on Saturday and Sunday, dinner on Saturday night, and plenty of booze!
On Saturday and Sunday we decide as a collective which crag(s) drivers will be heading to and spend the day climbing outside. Depending on the trip members may split off into bouldering and roped climbing; many like to do both.
Membership is required for all trips and covers your climbing insurance.
As well as weekend trips, we also regularly run day trips to stunning crags near Bristol such as Cheddar Gorge, Wyndcliff Quarry, and Goblin Combe. These only cost a few pounds to cover petrol and are open to all skill levels.
In the Easter holidays we take a week abroad to climb somewhere new and exciting, with recent trips including Croatia, Sicily, and Kalymnos. This is another fantastic value trip with more reliable weather for climbing, plus plenty of extra time for sun, sand, sea and shenanigans.
