Indoor and outdoor Rock climbing and hiking - IC College Mountaineering Club is open to anyone who has an interest in the mountaineering side of the outdoors: Rock climbing, Ice climbing, scrambling, hill walking; we dabble in a bit of everything! We welcome all students to come down to training sessions regardless of prior experience!
Welcome to IC College Mountaineering Club (or TUDMC for short!). Join one of the fastest-growing and most thrilling sports club at IC College. If you are new to climbing and mountaineering, give us a try, over the first few weeks our committee under the guidance and supervision of our Instructor Ronan Kane will teach you the basics. Join us for bi-weekly indoor climbing sessions, trips to get away from the hustle and bustle of Dublin, and excellent socials. Make sure you join our mailing list to receive information on teaching sessions, socials, trips, and lots more!
If you are new to climbing, we run a number of introductory sessions throughout the year so you can become a confident and independent climber: teaching you the ropes on Monday evening in Larkin College Climbing Centre, and how to boulder in Awesome Walls etc, working on technique and strength. Our teaching sessions will book out quickly, so make sure you join our mailing list now, so can sign up to them!
If you are an old hand at climbing and are already a competent climber and can confidently belay, you do need to pre-book a place any of our sessions through your Activities Portal Calendar to meet the club and find yourself a belayer or spotter. We will stretch your skills, going lead climbing and we will help to improve your bouldering. If you'd like to try your hand at competing, you can also join our competition team and compete nationally against all other universities in the Climbing Intervarsities. Make sure you join our mailing list and Facebook group so you can meet fellow climbers, know when and where our club meets, join socials and more!
Whether you've scaled Carrauntoohil or have never even seen a mountain before, you'll fit right in, we're a friendly gang
