Who are we?

West Bromwich Mountaineering Club is a club for mountaineers based in the West Midlands and surrounding areas.

What do we do?

WBMC organises a wide range of mountaineering meets throughout the year. These include single day Coach Meets to mountaineering areas in England and Wales and longer trips to these areas and further afield. We also run a wide range of social events, including dinner meets, evening walks and mountaineering slide shows. The full list of events for the current year is shown on the Meets List page of this site.

Perhaps more importantly, WBMC brings mountaineers together, so that friendships can be formed and a passion for mountaineering can be shared.

How to find us

WBMC meets every Thursday evening for an informal chat and a drink at the Globe Inn, Reform Street, West Bromwich. Just turn up after 9.00pm and ask for the Mountaineering Club. Alternatively, send us an e-mail; we will be happy to tell you how to book on our Club meets.
