There are a few spaces still available in the Swimyourswim End-2-End swim of Coniston on 18th July 2015.
Coniston is the third largest of the Lake Districts’ sixteen lakes. In length it is approximately 5.25 miles/8.45km long, and at its’ deepest point is 184ft/56m deep.
The swim route for the SYS End-2-End swim will take swimmers a distance 4.53miles/7.3km, swimming from the southern tip at Brown Howe car park and ending at the northern shore of the lake, near to Monk Coniston car park.
Swimmers will need to be able to complete the swim in a maximum time of 4 hours.
The swim is suitable for wetsuit or ‘skins’ (Channel swim rules) athletes – however, swimmers should note our regulations on temperatures (as detailed in the Coniston Swim Pack), as at certain temperatures wetsuits will become mandatory. If you want to attempt this swim in ‘skins’ you will need to confirm with SYS that you have the necessary experience and capability of such a swim.
The swim costs £75 and includes all safety cover.
