Trips
Throughout each term, the Club runs a series of weekend trips. These usually leave campus at 5pm on a Friday, and stay in one of the UK's fabulous national parks for two nights before returning to campus on the Sunday evening. During the trip, there will be the chance for you to go on a variety of walks, help cook dinner, spend time playing games in the bunkhouse/campsite, possibly enjoy a trip to the pub, and generally spend time in some of the UK's most spectacular scenery.

Cwm Taf, Bannau Brycheiniog (The Brecon Beacons)

Trip organised by George (President)
​
For our Fresher's Day Trip we will be heading to the wonderful Brecon Beacons. You do not have to be a member to come and join us on this adventure, and it is only for the day, so no overnight packing required! Thus the most important items to bring are walking boots, a waterproof coat and trousers, and lunch. This is a great opportunity to get an idea of what we do as a club, so make sure you subscribe to the Fresher's mailing list, as this will provide you with more information on how and where to sign up closer to the time.
