We met at the public carpark in Hurley next to the church:

and changed (discreetly).

We then shuttled to the Flower Pot Inn at Aston.

We walked a little way up to the lock,

and swam down to Frogmill Spinney.. Take care when starting off from Hambeldon lock as there can be strong currents around the weir. We finished at this beach at Riverside Picnic Grounds in Hurley, a distance of 4.75km

and walked back to the carpark to change. Afterwards, we shuttled back to the Flower Pot at Aston for lunch. They don't take bookings but insisted that since the weather wasgoing to be fine we could sit outside. And as it happened, they were right!

Don't forget to tell the lock keepers!

Swim 36 Track - Marsh Lock to Hambleden Lock

Swim 36: Marsh Lock to Hambleden Lock

This is an iconic swim taking in Henley-on-Thames, Temple Island and the site of Rewind Festival.  You can expect to encounter large amounts of boat traffic of all types so make sure you stay well to the left - except when approaching Hambledon Lock!

We met at the car park a short walk from Hambleden Lock:

We then shuttled down to the Marsh Lock car park:

Note that both car parks can be busy so make sure you get an early start if it's a nice day!

This is a swim of approximately 5.5km.
