03 Feb 2017 - 05 Feb 2017Climbing trip to North Wales:
Depending on the weather Wales in the winter can offer a wide range of climbing, from the Llanberis pass mountain routes to bolted slate or N-coast sport routes. Theres also the possibility of good winter routes (if the weather goes cold soon) or spectacular winter mountain walking.

Contact: caving@thecccc.org.uk24 Mar 2017 - 26 Mar 2017
Climbing: N Peaks / Yorkshire
We’ll go somewhere with wet weather walking options, available indoor options nearby, but good fast-drying climbing (both sport and trad may be possible) if the weather is kind. And hope we get delightful spiring weather.

13 Apr 2017 - 17 Apr 2017Climbing: Pembroke (Easter)
We’re heading to St Petrox for lots of South Pembroke sea-cliff climbing – all the limestone you can clim, and if you want something more esoteric head to the Ranges West briefing. Pembroke will benefit from tides at Easter. Camping at St Petrox might be not quite as crowded as at the August bank holiday

Climbing: Cornwall (Early May Bank Holiday)
Cornwall – about a month later than usual, so we should be able to camp (Treen?) rather than try to find a grotty caravan. Tons of stunning granite sea cliffs. We’ll probably offer extra day at the start to avoid traffic and make the journey really worth it.

13 May 2017 - 14 May 2017Beginners trip
The usual introduction to peak district climbing. Only a day trip, but please pencil in both and we’ll decide on one much closer when we have a forecast.

Caving trip to Orpheus
Contact: caving@thecccc.org.uk26 May 2017 - 29 May 2017
Climbing: Fontainbleau (Late May Bank Holiday)
Back to the land of the sandstone bouldering (and hope to avoid rain this time). Still in May, but at the other end. Not a BH in France, so the shops won’t shut on Monday. Probably also offer an extra day somewhere – either at the start of the end depending on which makes more sense for Chunnel tickets and travelling.

Use the Range West pass if you want or try the excitement of sandstone slabs or gabbro. Space on the N Pembroke campsite is possible – it doesn’t exist at St Govans.
