‍ ‍Ladies Scottish Climbing Club

Our mountaineers aiming for an Alpine summit with snow-covered peaks in the background.

  the oldest all-women's mountaineering club still in existence. - scaling the heights.

Since its foundation in 1908 the aim of the Ladies Scottish Climbing Club (LSCC) is 'to bring together women who are committed to mountaineering in Scotland and all aspects of mountaineering at home and abroad'.

See our Upcoming Meets, Us now, Us then, our Huts and how to Join.

Today our members, living all over Scotland and beyond, are united by a love of exploring wild places. We have a programme of varied Meets often in Scotland where we climb, go mountaineering in summer and winter. There are often Club trips to the Alps in summer and further afield to Iceland, the Himalayas, South America and more.  Our members also get together outside the Club for other activities, including kayaking, ski-touring and mountain biking.
