While Milngavie Mountaineering Club mainly focuses on hillwalking and climbing within the UK, many of our members have also explored mountain regions abroad over the years. From classic routes in the Alps to high-altitude treks in the Andes and Himalayas, there's a growing interest in organised international expeditions.
For those interested in guided climbs or trekking overseas, Guided Peaks is a useful resource. It helps you discover and compare guided mountaineering trips around the world — including popular peaks like Kilimanjaro, Aconcagua, and Island Peak — with information on route options, seasonal conditions, and local guides.
Whether you're planning your first international trip or looking for something more ambitious, it's worth browsing what's available and getting a sense of the logistics involved.
If you've been on a trip abroad and would like to share your experience with the club, feel free to get in touch — we're always keen to hear about members' adventures further afield.
