Chillswim Windermere 11 Miles End to End is the longest & most epic swim in the Chillswim calendar. The swim covers the full length of England’s largest lake, & demands a lot from you mentally as well as physically.

It’s a favourite among many experienced swimmers, & a brilliant step up if you’ve already done a long lake swim & want something that feels properly special.
