Easter Trip to Sicily!!!!
For this years Easter trip, UBMC will be going to San Vito Lo Capo in Sicily, Italy! On offer is a huge range of sport climbing, multi-pitch routes and deep water soloing, along a beautiful beach lined coast.
We will be staying in bungalows on a campsite in San Vito Lo Capo, just a short walk from the beach. Each bungalow is self catered and sleeps 5 people. Normally, groups will take it in turns to cook and we will likely all go out for one group meal. The main crags are ~45 minute walk or more, depending on how far we venture.
Tickets will cost £108 and include 7 nights in self-catered accommodation, as well as a bus transfer to and from the airport (flights not included). You must be a UBMC member to come on this trip - there are 35 spaces.
You must also be a competent sport climber, including being able to clean routes outdoors. There is still time to learn these skills at Redpoint Wednesdays, if you are already an experienced top rope climber.
The gear list of what you need personally: harness, climbing shoes, helmet, belay device, chalk bag
Please bring if you have: lanyard, rope, quickdraws, prusik, screw gates
(If you don't have any of these things, please reach out to James our gear sec and he can help you out)
Overseas insurance is also needed - we recommend Austrian Alpine.
You will need to buy your own flights to Palermo - flight details are on instagram, you can check the cost of this on Skyscanner (to avoid driving up the prices). Flights depart from London Stanstead and a group chat will be created to organise car shares / trains for people travelling from Bristol.
PLEASE DO NOT BUY YOUR FLIGHT UNTIL YOU HAVE A CONFIRMED UBMC TICKET THAT HAS BEEN FULLY PAID FOR.
Luggage: When it comes to luggage and gear, you need buddy up with someone and share a suitcase to save on luggage. If you buy a ticket for the trip but don't have anyone to share luggage with, we can pair you up with someone in the trip groupchat.
By booking this ticket, you are committing to transferring £108 to the UBMC bank acount IMMEDIATELY. Failure to do so will result in us putting your ticket back up for sale for someone else. Please also do not send money unless you have actually booked this ticket upon ticket release!
