The purpose of the Mountain Club of the University of Navarra is to make the exciting world of mountaineering known and enjoyed by the university community: professors, students, graduates, employees, and their families and friends.

In the half-century of the University's existence, there have always been people who, with great dedication and effort, have ensured that, through outings, projections and short courses, university students have left the classroom for a few moments to learn and get to know the mountains at close quarters. First, by visiting the nearest peaks in Navarre, and later by travelling through the Pyrenees.

In the last fifteen years, these activities have had greater continuity and the number of university students interested in participating in a non-competitive sport, which takes place in nature, in an atmosphere of fellowship, has gradually increased.

Despite this growth, the objectives remain the same: that all members of the university community can enjoy the exciting world of mountaineering.

History

historia-club-montana

In October 1952 the Estudio General de Navarra was born, the embryo of what a few years later would become the University of Navarra. It was also during these years that the "prehistory" of the Mountain Club began. There is no formal and solemn inauguration, but simply the meeting between the first university professors with Navarrese mountaineers who taught them to know and love the mountains and the lands of Navarre. From the hand of the Navarrese notary Javier Nagore, the first President of the University of Navarra -D. Ismael Sánchez Bella- followed by other "pioneers" in their respective Schools -D.Juan Jiménez Vargas, D. José Javier López Jacoiste, D. Francisco Gómez Antón, D. Esteban Santiago, D. Félix Álvarez de la Vega... and so many others-, were also laying the foundations of the Mountain Club...

desplegable-club-montana-historia

Los medios y el material que empleaban para ascender a las montañas pertenecen a una época muy diferente a la actual: pocas carreteras y largas aproximaciones; chaquetas de lana y pellizas de piel; boinas o sombrero en la cabeza, zurrones en la espalda y chirucas en los pies; bastones de madera junto a los primeros piolets también de madera; montañas y senderos más solitarios que hoy en día… Pero de lo que no hay ninguna duda es de que el entusiasmo y la pasión por este deporte llegaban tan alto como las cumbres que querían alcanzar.

La década de los 60 son unos años pródigos para el montañismo universitario navarro. Si hasta el momento habían sido tímidos, aunque constantes, las salidas de los universitarios a la montaña, es durante estos años cuando comienza a ser un fenómeno más popular y comienzan las primeras salidas masivas en las que ya es necesario alquilar un autobús. Los horizontes se amplían, ya no se limitan a ascender a las cumbres más cercanas a la capital navarra, aunque siguen siendo las más habituales, y ya se empieza a visitar al Pirineo de Huesca. Es también en estos años cuando comienza a denominarse a estas excursiones como "las del Club de Montaña", en parte para hacer competencia al pujante Club de Esquí fundado por aquellos años por José María Aymerich Llechá, un catalán recién llegado a Pamplona que comenzaba a trabajar en la Universidad. En alguna ocasión compartían el autobús en sus salidas si el destino era Candanchú o Formigal.

Es en esta época cuando uno tras otro van cayendo las cumbres más altas de la Tierra, las que superan 8.000 metros, holladas por expediciones internacionales. La admiración hacia estos grandes conquistadores de "lo inútil", hace que también los universitarios intenten emularlos buscando el cada vez "más difícil todavía". Con técnicas que hoy en día parecen muy rudimentarias algunos valientes -primero Javier Ardanaz y más adelante Javier Heras- comenzaron a emplear técnicas de escalada deportiva, cuando este deporte todavía estaba naciendo, para alcanzar las cumbres de las Dos Hermanas de Irurzun.

En el relato enviado por Miguel d'Ors desfilan muchos de los protagonistas de estos años: Ismael Sánchez BellaD. Javier Nagore Jesús Vázquez y tantos otros, algunos todavía son hoy montañeros en activo y otros están ya en el recuerdo.

En los años 70 el club de Montaña vivó una de sus épocas doradas. No solo por la abundancia de actividades y el alto nivel de participación, sino porque incluso llego a haber dos Clubes de Montaña dentro de la propia Universidad de Navarra: el de Medicina y el de Derecho. Los planes de estudio reconocían la posibilidad de convalidación de la asignatura de Gimnasia por actividades de montaña. 

El entonces profesor de esta disciplina, Tasio del Arco, animó a varios alumnos a que formaran sus respectivos clubes de montaña en las propias facultades en las que estudiaban. Eran estos alumnos los que organizaban y certificaban la asistencia a las salidas. 

Desde la Facultad de Medicina se siguió con la tradición montañera de los años anteriores pero, ante el aumento de la afición, se creó un nuevo grupo montañero en la facultad de Derecho, con actividades independientes a los "de Ciencias". Este grupo estuvo impulsado por Julián Díez.

Los años 90 comenzaron con la dirección de Club de Montaña por parte de JAF Fernández, Director de Alumni y Carlos Bergera que por aquel entonces trabajaba en la recién nacida Fundación Empresa-Universidad. Rescataron un Club de Montaña inactivo durante unos años y pusieron las bases de lo que es hoy en día el club. Organizaron salidas de senderismo alpinismo, cursos y expediciones en verano a los Alpes. En el curso 92-93 comenzó a colaborar con él José María Aymerich que ese año comenzaba sus estudios de Historia.

En el año 93, Carlos Bergera se retiró de la dirección de Club y comenzó una nueva etapa con JAF Fernández,  José María Aymerich y Fernando Unzu, ayudados como venían haciendo desde muchos años atrás, por Jesús Vázquez y Fernando Múgica.

Lo más destacable de esta nueva etapa fue que se reconoció oficialmente por la Federación Navarra de Montaña la existencia del club. A partir de entonces, al comienzo de cada curso los alumnos se encontraban un calendario con todo el programa de salidas y cursos. Gracias al "fichaje" del arquitecto y fotógrafo Iñaki Bergera la estética de los folletos mejoró enormemente. JAF Fernández, que entonces pilotaba Alumni, supuso la ampliación del público hacia los antiguos alumnos, hasta entonces "olvidados" en las actividades del Club. Además de las salidas de senderismo y alpinismo se celebraron numerosos cursos, semanas de montaña, salidas de esquí de travesía, raquetas de nieve, escalada, expediciones a los Alpes en los veranos, y se estableció el Día de Todos a la Montaña, como última salida del curso.
 

The change of millennium did not bring great news in the Mountain Club. José María Aymerich, Iñaki Bergera and JAF Fernández are still in charge, with the close collaboration of Enrique Aymerich, Patxi Gil, Teresa San Julián and Fernando Múgica, among others, at partnership . The Club's star activities continue to be the hiking outings, which are becoming more and more popular and in which a large number of foreign students take part issue , thus taking advantage of the opportunity to get to know the country they have come to study in a different way; and on the other hand, the mountaineering, ski touring and climbing outings continue, albeit in smaller groups.

Over the years, has been regularly touring all the valleys and mountains of the region, as well as many places in neighboring provinces. New ways of "living" the mountain are also introduced, such as water activities: canyoning and rafting; mountain biking, day trips and even pilgrimages to Santiago de Compostela; climbing in climbing walls and outdoors, etc. Alumni participate more and more issue and with greater enthusiasm in the activities and even dare to take their children on some excursions. Thus the continuity of the Club for the next 50 years is guaranteed!
