Get out of the pool and into the pure clear open water! No noise, no chlorine, just you and an adventurous group of people taking on a unique challenge in stunning locations across Ireland. What’s so special about the Gaelforce Great Swim Trilogy?
1. The Gaelforce Great Swim Trilogy events are perfect as a first taster of open water swim racing or as a totally different experience for seasoned swimmers. With 3 distances to choose from, these are events for all open water swimmers. You’ll never look back once you’ve got the bug!
2. We’ve chosen the best of Ireland’s outdoor swimming spots for our events. Stunning scenery and magical waters, you’ll feel part of nature and a million miles away from the pool!
3. No expensive equipment needed. You’ll need a good wetsuit - or swim in skins if that’s your thing! - and a pair of goggles and you’re good to go.
4. Camaraderie is a core part of the Gaelforce ethos. Every year we welcome hundreds of competitors to our open water swimming events, from first-time swimmers to seasoned Gaelforce veterans all swimming together. The atmosphere is always fun and relaxed, you’ll love it!
5. You can do one swim or take on all three. Each event is different - start on an early summer morning swimming the mighty river Shannon, a high summer swim in magical Lough Derg and finish your swimming year with an autumn swim in the Atlantic waters of beautiful Killary Fjord. Build up your experience and distances as you go!
So, what are you waiting for? Make this year you take on the Gaelforce Swim Trilogy!
