Winter Swimming - Lake Bled
You will be amazed! Crystal clear lake, breathtaking landscape - join us for the unique opportunity to swim in a winter fairytale!
The idyllic location in the beautiful alpine part of Slovenia is one of the most unique swimming locations in the World. The pure alpine lake boasts spectacular swimming scenery which becomes especially magnificent in the snowy winter months, making it the perfect location for such a swimming event. The programme for the championships is diverse and will cater to every taste. There are 17 disciplines to chose from, including
non-competitive ones and long distance disciplines. The additional cultural programme is a perfect accompaniment for the competition. Bled offers many accommodation possibilities, the Local Organising Committee will be delighted to help with any wishes or questions regarding accommodation.
For any additional questions, you can visit the official website, or write to info@winterswimming-bled.com.
