Begin your journey with the Gaelforce Great River Swim, the first event of the Trilogy. Choose from four downstream distances: 800m, 3.5km, 5.8km, or 12km, along the mighty River Shannon, through the beautiful countryside where Roscommon and Longford meet, finishing on the shores of Lough Ree.

With the current at your side, each distance swims a little longer, adding to both the challenge and the thrill.

At the finish line, you’ll be welcomed with hot food and drinks, music, and the famous Irish craic on the riverbank - the perfect reward for completing the first stage of your Trilogy.
