How to further your mountaineering skills
Watch our mountaineering skills playlists
Our live winter monitoring conditions pages for the Lake District and Eryri bring you live winter climbing ground conditions so climbers can make the most informed decision before heading out.
Mountaineering and expedition grants
Through the BMC, additional organisations, trusts, commercial companies and charities there are funding pots available to support trips. Check out each organisation's awarding criteria carefully on the page list we have compiled.
Climbing at altitude
Planning the trip of a lifetime, skiing in the high mountains or a mountaineering expedition? Our high altitude booklet will help you understand some of the ways your body may change as it has to cope with high altitude and the ‘thin air’. It is full of information, tips and stories to help you enjoy your trip and stay healthy. Most importantly, it also covers the serious altitude illnesses which still kill those unaware of the risks.
Life insurance
Looking at protecting your finances in the event of illness can be tough for anybody, but for a climber it can be doubly daunting. Not only have you to consider which protection you require but you also have to find a company which will actually cover you properly. Find out more about Summit Financial Services
