We aim to support and enable the continuing development of our network of clubs and develop individual competence, environmental awareness and self-reliance.
The MCofS promotes mountaineering activities
MCofS seeks to promote mountaineering activities to people of all ages, abilities and backgrounds and to reduce barriers to participation. We also encourage all who participate in mountaineering in Scotland to do so responsibly. We aim to promote Scottish mountaineering both at home and internationally.
