Edinburgh University Hillwalking Club

As is our tradition, we'll be starting the year with our Freshers' Daytrips to Arrochar (on Saturday 25th September) and Crianlarich (on Sunday 26th September). Both places are great locations in the South-West Highlands with lots of good hills to climb. You don't have to be a Fresher to come on these daytrips, everyone is welcome! Each daytrip will cost £15 and signup will happen on Tuesday 21st September in Appleton Tower straight after our Freshers' Introductory Presentation.

For our first weekend trip, we're heading to Kinlochleven in the West Highlands. This village at the end of Loch Leven is a perfect base for exploring the Mamores, a range of beautiful mountains linked together by some fine ridges. We'll be staying at the Blackwater Hostel.

The Cairngorms National Park is one of the 15 national parks in the UK and one of only 2 in Scotland! It is an area of outstanding natural beauty and has an abundance of wildlife. We'll be staying in the Abernethy Bunkhouse in Nethybridge, on the Northern side of the National Park. It's just a short drive away from the Cairngorm Ski Centre which provides easy access to the hills. 

A new thing this year, we're running our very first HALLOWEEN trip! The location for this trip is Cannich, an amazing place in the Northern Highlands ideally located for exploring the hills in Glen Affric, Glen Cannich and Glen Strathfarrar. We'll be staying at the BCC Loch Ness hostel, a 5-star hostel not far from the famous Loch Ness.
