Small Easy Stages

On a lot of the holidays you don't actually swim the entire distance in one go ( and very few of the days total 5KM, usually 3KM or 4KM at the most ) but have a bit of a swim then a little hike and something to eat before getting back in the water for another little swim etc etc. The holiday in the Bavarian lakes seems to include a day of swimming down a river which isn't exactly challenging 'cos you're being carried down stream anyway. You can also use fins if you like which make the whole thing about 20 times easier.

£650 includes all your food and accommodation so it's not a bad price. Anyone can learn to swim 5KM, have a go - it will do you good !

The man who runs these holidays says that they are not endurance competitions but holidays and they should be enjoyable. He also says "Ferries are for wimps".
