About this Event
We’re so excited for this one....Waypoint Crew is teaming up with , London’s most fun, friendly, and social swim club that’s all about bringing people together, one icy dip (+ all kinds of side quests) at a time.
Get ready for an Autumn social adventure that’s equal parts refreshing, scenic, and social. We’ll kick things off with a cold-water dip/swim at Hackney’s hidden gem - the West Reservoir (Not included in ticket, you'll need to book with West Res - see details below). It’s beautiful, peaceful, and yes... it’s going to be COLD! 🥶
After your dip, we’ll grab a hot takeaway coffee from the café and set off on a 6km mini hike along the iconic Parkland Walk - a leafy, urban trail linking Hackney to Highgate. We’ll finish at , where we’ve got a space reserved for a big post-adventure pub social with both communities coming together for well-earned drinks and good vibes.
