Rockhoppers Mountaineering & Climbing Club London

Contact | Faqs | Links

Welcome to the Rockhoppers Mountaineering Club, one of London's most active and friendly climbing clubs.

Our members participate in all aspects of mountaineering from rock climbing to hill walking, high mountaineering to trekking, winter ice to summer sport climbing. Some of us have even been spotted on skis and dangling from paragliders but that's another story.

You don't have to be a great alpinist to join! If you're completely new to mountain sports, you're welcome.

Come along and get involved.

Next Slide show - 15th April - Via ferrata in The Dolomites
The second in my via ferrata trilogy, featuring a trip to the Italian Dolomites in September last year. Thrill to the extreme verticality, and the death defying feats of endurance and skill (OK I might be overselling this a bit!). In reality it was an excellent trip, featuring some of the hardest and most "out there" via ferratas in the fantastically photogenic scenery of the Itlaian Dolomites, so come along and see what you missed.
