Hi there and welcome to the Scottish Hillwalkers and Activities Group.
This group was founded to be run by the members for the members and we'll be doing a variety of walking - from single Munros, to multiple Munros, scrambling over ridges, weekends away and a selection of low level longer walks, pub walks and summer evening walks. We also have a dedicated core of rock climbers - with weekly meetups at the Glasgow Climbing Centre, occasional trips to Ratho and other venues as well as outside rock climbing when the weather is good. There is a weekly cycling meetup too and whatever else we feel like organising for the group!
We don't charge for coming along on walks (although we do ask for a voluntary donation to cover the meetup fees) as we are not professionally trained or run.
Please note that the Assistant Organisers will organise walks on specific dates, but we do not lead the walks. Members are responsible for their own health and safety and should carry route details and preferably a map and compass with you (that you know how to use)!
If you have some ideas for walks and activities or perhaps once you have been on a few events, would like to get involved in organising a walk, please feel free to get in touch with one of the Assistant Organisers.
For more details about the group, check out our About Us pages.
Look forward to seeing you on a walk soon,
Mountain Goat
If you RSVP "maybe", please change it to "yes" or "no" by midday or we will assume you are not coming and will not wait for you.
Indoor climbing is a good way to develop strength, stamina and co-ordination. It's also fun. You don't need to be a seasoned climber to participate, and there are routes for all levels of climbers to try. Read more
