It is the only national association of over 110 tramping, mountain climbing clubs and schools. Membership, both financial and associated, is currently (Jan 2021) 23,000.[citation needed] It was founded in 1931 by existing tramping clubs uniting to fight possible threats to New Zealand's mountain and forested areas.[2] FMC has continued since then to actively:
promote membership of Clubs as a means of enjoying the outdoors
advocacy on access issues related to New Zealand's outdoors
liaise with Government Ministries and NGO's on all matters related to the outdoors
