Please ensure you read the information below before planning your visit.
Before you visit
Our sessions are currently for experienced open water swimmers. If you are not used to swimming in open water, we strongly urge you NOT to start now unless you can do so under supervision and guidance. Before you plan a visit to West Reservoir, please see and take on board official advice from Swim England for open water swimmers.
At West Reservoir we pride ourselves in offering the best and safest environment for open water swimming in London. We currently have 2 swim courses – a 200m loop and a 100m warm-up lane. As the water temperature increases, we will bring back our larger courses as we have done previously. All of our sessions are fully supervised by our qualified safety team.
For your safety, our changing rooms will not be in use. Swimmers will need to come ready to swim.
