We can’t wait to swim with you and introduce you to what we love most at Swim the Lakes: Outdoor swimming.
Our venue provides safe and sheltered swimming in a beautiful location at Waterhead, Ambleside. It is here that we’ll introduce you to the wonderful world of wild swimming. We will cover essential aspects of safety as well as the basics of effective open-water swimming. We hope that this will give you a good foundation on which to build your own future outdoor swimming adventures.
Throughout the morning, we will cover around 1,500m of swimming, depending on your aspirations. We will take regular breaks throughout the morning, and finish with an optional guided swim to the headland. This course aims to provide a fun and information-packed session to inspire and build confidence. It doesn’t matter what stroke you prefer, as long as you can swim!
