Welcome to the NUMC homepage. Here you can find details about our Pulse climbing nights, gear hire, memberships, and communications. We look forward to taking you on epic adventures!

The Newcastle University Mountaineering Club is a network of adventure-minded people who love nature, the outdoors, and adventure sports! NUMC facilitates this passion, providing climbing, caving, bushwalking and camping trips, as well as seasonal canyoning trips and social BBQ nights. We also provide a weekly climbing night for our members, which will this year take place at Pulse Climbing Gym in Warners Bay on Wednesday nights & Adamstown on Friday nights, and provide a networking opportunity with other passionate mountaineers. 

Pulse Climbing Nights

Each Wednesday at Pulse Warners Bay, and Friday at Pulse Adamstown we run two separate climbing sessions, 5:30-7:30, then 7:30-9:30. Tickets are purchased directly through Pulse climbing and are $8. The link to purchase the Pulse tickets is included in your membership email. There are 20 tickets available for each session but get in fast, they sell out quickly!

Our membership fee is $55 which includes access to all events.
The membership runs from January-January each year.
