Borrowdale Wild Swimming Walk (August)

Join me on this low valley walk on undulating rocky paths to swim in clear river pools and waterfalls. The Borrowdale wild swimming walk is always popular thanks to the awesome scenery and fantastic river gorge for swimming and dipping. We swim breaststroke on this event and you must be able to tread water. This swim is not suitable for front crawl. If you have limited outdoor swimming experience, please check with me before booking. 

Our walk climbs uphill for the first mile or so, but is not onerously steep. You should be comfortable walking on rocky terrain and loose paths, though you don't need to be a mountain goat for this walk. We will be carrying everything we need for the day in backpacks, including our lunches and drinks. 

We have a picnic lunch (bring your own) and almost certainly stop at a pub or cafe at the end of the day.
