The Rucksack Club 2026 calendar features 50 photographs of club members in action on crags, hills, and mountains, participating in a range of activities from climbing and alpinism to ski-mountaineering and bouldering. Exploits cover five continents, from Aconcagua to the Alps; New Zealand to the Sierra Nevada; and the Himalaya to the High Peak.
The 28 page full-colour calendar is A4 landscape (folds out to A3 when hanging) and has a feature image from activities by club members in the same month the previous year. There’s plenty of space for notes and appointments.
The production and printing of the calendar has been funded entirely through the generosity of The Rucksack Club and its members, so every penny of the purchase price of this calendar will go to support Climbers Against Cancer
You can learn more about some of the projects that CAC has funded over the last year or so – donating tens of thousands of pounds to fund research and support for those living with and beyond the disease. Read highlight here about training for doctors in Nepal ; Radiotherapy in Uganda; Groundbreaking research in Arizona ; Nutrition for kids with cancer in Tanzania ; support for ‘the Big Four’ (Breast/Prostate /Bowel /Skin cancer) in UK; and our Climbing Beyond Cancer programs to use our wonderful activity as a part of a recovery regime for cancer patients in Inverness; Grenoble and Calgary.
The calendar is available for £10 plus p&p from the CAC Shop
… and will also be on sale at the Club Dinner and Winter Slideshows, plus local walls. If you are able to take a bunch to a wall, outdoor retailer or event then please get in touch with Bill (Senior Vice President, Calendar Sales & Marketing).
Huge thank you to everyone who sent in photos – the calendar features at least fifty contributors, either in front of or behind the lens. Sorry if we couldn’t squeeze yours in – get snapping for next year!
Cheers, Dom
