Description

Swim from St Nicholas Park down the Avon to view the castle from the water! Access either from the point marked on the map or from the car park on the opposite bank - Myton Fields. Check if you can swim against the current by swimming away from the bridge & the castle first before swimming downstream towards the castle. Do not swim beyond the safety rope marking the approach to the weir. Beware of boats from the club - swim on the right of the river as you head downstream. Tow float essential.

Getting There

Car parks at either St Nicholas Park or Myton Fields. Pay for parking via Ring-go App or contactless. Public transport links good as close to town centre.

Accessibility

Easy access from Myton Fields car park straight to water’s edge. Walk through St Nicholas park is on the flat with paved paths. Steep banks down to access river. Distance down into water & ease of exiting varies depending on river levels.

As edits take a long time, please note that this swim should read: stay on the LEFT of the river as you swim under the bridge towards the castle to avoid the rowers who stay on the right.
