Wild Dart Swim and Aquathlon

The Wild Dart Swim and Aquathlon is an outdoor endurance event held at the River Dart, starting near the Riverside Cafe on Steamer Quay, Totnes, UK. It features a 5k and 2.5k river swim, with the 5k swim following the tide from Totnes to Ashprington Point Field, and a 15k aquathlon combining the 5k swim with a 10k run through scenic green lanes and quiet country roads around Tuckenhay and Ashprington. The course offers a natural riverside setting alongside reed beds and rolling hills.

Safety is prioritized with kayakers and rescue boats, and wetsuit use depends on water temperature. Facilities include chip timing, changing cubicles, and camping at Ashprington Point Field. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
