Lake District Weekend Date :: 05/01/2012    Posted by ::

The club is running a weekend, climbing and hiking in the Lake District on 16th / 17th / 18th March 2012. (2 nights / 3 days)

The weekend is open to all adults, however the numbers are limited to 12 maximum.

The cost will be dependent on the final numbers, but I estimate the cost to about £120 per person including full breakfast and 3 course dinner with coffee (Room share) with en suite.

This does not include transport, however with 4 people to a car, the cost should be very reasonable.

Before confirming your place, please bear the following in mind:

Numbers are restricted to 12 maximum – Adults Only.

We will be hiking a climbing high ridges, so some previous experience is necessary.

Along with the obvious - the following equipment will be required:

Good waterproof walking boots.

Waterproof outer clothing including gloves

Torch / head torch.

Rucksack / emergency blanket or survival bag

Please contact me ONLY if you definitely wish to book a space (a deposit of £40 per person will be required).
