The University of Guelph Climbing Club (UGCC) is the perfect place for anyone who wants to advance their rock climbing. We have dedicated club hours for indoor climbing at the Athletics Center climbing wall and host weekly outdoor climbs! We welcome all climbers at any experience level - challenge yourself and come climb!
Our Mission Statement
UGCC aims to ensure that climbers can advance their skills and become part of a thriving community. UGCC hopes its passion for climbing can continue to inspire current and future climbers to explore the vertical (and occasionally horizontal) movement across rock, indoors and out. UGCC is the perfect place for anyone hoping to advance their rock climbing and welcomes climbers of all skill levels.
About the club
UGCC has been a club on campus since the 1990s. Historically, UGCC has always climbed indoors during the fall and winter semesters, with the occasional outdoor trip during Christmas break or reading week. As of the Summer 2022 semester, UGCC has transitioned to outdoor climbing! The club hosts outdoor events at local conservation areas, such as Rattlesnake Point and Mount Nemo in the Halton conservation area, as well as occasional day trips to further destinations like The Swamp in Collingwood. Additionally, UGCC has begun hosting the occasional training course to introduce proper skills and techniques for new climbers or climbers transitioning from indoor to outdoor climbing!
