Suitable for walkers, climbers, cavers, or anyone wanting to enjoy and explore north Wales. The Story of the Hut:
In the early 1960's a small group of 18/20 year old walkers/cyclists/cavers in the Derby area met up as a result of climbing & walking excursions organised at a local Youth Club. These were at first to the Derbyshire grit stone edges, but later to the Lakes, Scotland and the Alps. Our first viewing of the Hut was in February 1966. This led to the instigation and formation of the 'Clogwyn Mountaineering Club' to administer and account for the Hut. In between continuing to enjoy our climbing and mountaineering activities at home and away, we found time to carry out many improvements on the stable, including new floors, re-slating the roof, digging out & constructing the septic tank (over approx 2 years!), installing water & electricity, and many more associated tasks. The Hut is stone built, consisting of one main living area, over which is the dormitory. On one side of the building is the toilet area. The main room provides cooking facilities (an electric oven and microwave), a sink with hot and cold water, two fridges, table and chairs, storage space, cooking utensils and crockery. There is a comfortable sitting area. The room is heated by solid fuel stove. Upstairs is sleeping accommodation for ten people, in one large unisex room. There are comfortable foam mattresses, alpine hut style.
