Logistics and site information
Participants are directed to the site car park and then follow arrows to the swim start, which is about 400 metres from the car park. Registration is located on the right-hand side on the grass. There are changing tents and toilets on site. Attendees are asked to keep to the pavement because a fast track bus route runs through the site. Exiting the lake may be wet and muddy; care is advised.
Swimming in the lakes at The Bridge is restricted to events and authorised training sessions. Unauthorised swimming is treated as trespass and may lead to removal from the site and disqualification from future events. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
