What a night! Bikes, beer, banter ….and bathing?!? Loch Ness has never felt so warm - normally it’s baltic! Great way to chill out after a couple of long days. Canyon Bicycles SwimWild #friends #fun #chill #lochness #bikes

It was a long weekend of smashing and moving ice to make a large enough swimming hole for 60+people.

Loch Insh didn't disappoint with its stunning scenery, capped by this sunset.

Massive well done to SwimWild for creating such a great Winter Swimfest.

Had lots of fun getting photos of Alice SwimWild splashing about in cold Scottish water for her book and it is now available to pre-order with VertebratePublishing. Come to Scotland for a swim!

I borrowed my sisters wild water swim gear. I laughed so much I could hardly swim. Until the 13.5 degree cold water kicked in. #wellbeing ⁦SwimWild ⁩

Here at SwimWild, we LOVE the cold... but what about the HEAT?!⁠ ⁠ 2 x mobile saunas and a dedicated ice channel at last year's SwimWild WinterFest were a BIG HIT! (🦀 hats optional!)⁠
