"When we reach the mountain summits we leave behind all the things that weigh heavily on our body and our spirit. We leave behind all sense of depression; we feel a new freedom, a great exhilaration of the body no less than the spirit." - Jan Christiaan Smuts |

The Mountain Club of South Africa (MCSA) offers
climbing, mountaineering and hiking opportunities to its members and is

Frequently asked questions
What are the requirements for becoming a section of the Mountain
Club?
Constitutionally a few requirements including autonomous, constitution
and being similarly minded.
Can Hiking clubs be affiliated to the Mountain
Club without becoming a full-fledged section?
There is no provision for such at this stage, but watch this space.
What are the benefits of belonging to the Club as a Section?
Probably the biggest is sharing of resources. Being able to speak with
one voice to government and lobby for changes. International opportunities
through the UIAA and of course drawing on 100years of experience.
