North Kingston Hillwalking Club

13-15 January 2023: Peak District - Fallcliffe
2023-01-13 - 2023-01-15 | Peak district
For January we have booked a cosy hut in the Peak District. It is a small club hut, Fallcliffe, www.ulgmc.org.uk/huts/fallcliffe which I gather is a nostalgic venue for some in the club. It’s a great location near Grindleford, 1.5 miles south of Hathersage. Froggat, Stanage, Curbar, and Stoney Middleton are all within easy reach.

3-5 February 2023: Lakes - Duddon valley
2023-02-03 - 2023-02-05 | Lakes
By popular demand, an extra lakes trip in February. We have booked 10 places at the tried and trusted Rucksack Club hut at the foot of the Walna Scar track to Coniston. See rucksackclub.org/huts
Great access to the Coniston fells. Additional beds and nights can be booked nearer the time.
