“There is no nobler county than that of Northumberland, as it rolls processionally northwards to the Border in great waves of coloured moorland, cresting upon the skyline into sudden and surprising crags, which crown for us the magnificent walking and admirable rock climbs.”   Geoffrey Winthrop Young, Alpine Club President, 1941-43

Bowden

This year, the meet is again based around the most northerly crags covered in the Northumberland Mountaineering Club guide. The plan is to visit crags such as Bowden Doors, Back Bowden, Berryhill, and Kyloe.

If you would like to come, either for the day or for the weekend, please get in touch and I will add you to the WhatsApp group.
