About
About
Since 1923, Dundee Uni Rucksack Club has been providing access to the outdoors for its members - both hiker and climber alike. As one of the biggest sports clubs in the Uni (with upwards of 150 members), we cater to all sorts of outdoors activities. From Munro to crag - we probably do it. If hillwalking, scrambling, fell running, sport/trad climbing, bouldering or anything else mountaineering are of interest to you, then you're in the right place!
We are a begginer friendly club, so whether you're Adam Ondra or are wanting to try something new, you'll fit in great.
Alongside our weekly outdoors trips, we have weekly socials where you can find like-minded people, or maybe your future climbing partner. We also have extra social events throughout the semester, such as ceilidhs, pub crawls, wild swims, joint socials with other clubs, and much more! We also have regular sober socials, so don't worry if big drinking nights aren't your scene.

Gear Store
No gear? No problem. We are very lucky to have a shed full of gear we can loan out to members for trips. This includes hiking and climbing gear (even trad gear) that we know most people cannot fund themselves.

History
History
Founded in 1923, Rucksack is one of the country's oldest mountaineering clubs, so unsurprisingly we have a lot of interesting history. From building bridges to owning a bothy, we've never been boring.
