Summer swimming in the Cam

On Sunday 5th September Brockwell Swimmers will be following another one of the very enjoyable swim/walks from the Wild Swimming Walks book “28 lake, river and seaside days out by train from London”. This is a moderately long walk across stretches of East Anglian farmland, passing through several attractive villages with traditional thatched cottages, via Grantchester to Cambridge.

We will meet at London Kings Cross around 8:30am by the gate for the 09:03am train to Sepreth. Alternatively meet us earlier outside Brixton tube at 8am. Buy a day return ticket to Cambridge seems to be the cheapest option. We plan to head back around 4:00pm from Cambridge. Bring a picnic, something to drink, swimmers, and let’s hope for an Indian Summer.

All participants must be solely responsible for making their own assessment as to the risks involved in any swim, and also the risks involved in the non-swimming parts of any walk. Neither the swims nor the non-swimming parts of the walks are led or supervised by qualified individuals and no insurance is in place. The decision to participate must therefore be taken individually, and participants must not rely (in whole or in part) on views or information provided by leaders or organisers of walks or the administrators of this web site. If you are in any doubt about the safety of a swim or your ability to complete it, you should not take part.
