UltraSwim33.3 – #14Switzerland
Step out of your comfort zone with UltraSwim 33.3
33.3km (English Channel distance) spread over 4 days, 6 swims.
Welcome to your next big challenge.
This course takes us around the eastern end of the famous Lake Geneva (Lac Léman more correctly), starting at the Chateau de Chillon, passing famous Montreux Jazz Festival landmarks (hello Freddie Mercury), underneath UNESCO protected steep sided vineyards and quaint Swiss villages, with the Alps in the background and an iconic 13km crossing between Switzerland and France on Marathon Day 3.
UNIQUE TO #14:
- the first non-salt water event in the series.
- this will also be the first event where a charitable cause is put at the heart of an UltraSwim 33.3 – and hopefully will touch the hearts of the participants, as they Swim for Hope! Léman hope is a Swiss charity that provides 5 day sailing trips to young cancer survivors to help them rebuild confidence after the destructive treatments they (and their families) have been through.
- This smaller group environment gives the chance to spend quality time together, over dinner or during the transfer time – something not so easy on full-scale events.
