Fancy escaping to the hills for the weekend?

If you love the hills and have already done a fair bit of open water swimming then this adventure weekend is for you. After an introductory lake swim on the Friday evening, we'll spend Saturday exploring the breath-taking wilderness of the hidden corners of Snowdonia. We will take you well and truly off the beaten track to some stunning swim spots where you are guaranteed not to see a soul all day.

Back at camp you'll get to sleep in real, seriously comfortable beds in heated bell tents, with hot showers and private composting toilets. We'll supply all the food to keep you full of energy and provide the transport to get you to and from the mountains. Rest assured that cake and tea will be in abundant supply!

This weekend is designed for intermediate to experienced wild swimmers who are comfortable hiking up and down steep ascents for around 6 hours. Given the location of the swim spots, you'd also need to be comfortable swimming in 'skins', i.e. without a wetsuit, as you'll need to carry all your kit with you all day.

It costs just £475 per person, all inclusive and we can take a maximum of 10 people with us - who's in?!
