Loch Ken 10km Wild Swim

clean clear water

Loch Ken is known to be one of the cleanest Loch's in Scotland and has become a favorite spot for Wild Swimming. The water is tested by SEPA prior to the race.

timed to perfection

We use Sport Ident timing chips to give you an accurate time and allow us to account for every swimmer over the 10km stretch. These are issued at the start of the race and included in the fee.

End to end wild swim

safety in numbers

Swimmers will be asked to submit their expected time and will be grouped accordingly. Each wave of swimmers will have their own dedicated safety team and will be required to swim in their expected time.
