On arrival, participants should make their way to the on-site car park and follow the arrows to the swim start, which is about 400 meters from the car park. Registration is located on the right-hand side on the grass. There are changing tents and toilets on site.
Wetsuits are compulsory for the swim. Participants are advised to take care when exiting the lake because the ground may be wet and muddy. Spectators and guardians are asked to keep children away from the water’s edge and from the bus lane while the event is in progress. A fast track bus route runs past the site so pedestrians should keep to the pavement.
After the event there will be free food and cold drinks available for swimmers. Swimming in the lakes at The Bridge is forbidden at any time outside organised events or authorised open water training sessions; anyone found swimming outside these times will be asked to leave and may be barred from the site and future events. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
