Neue Donau Swim

Join for a relaxed open water swim at the Neue Donau.

This is not a training session, coaching event, or competition. The idea is simply to bring together people who enjoy swimming, motivate each other, and spend some time in the water with like-minded people.

Everyone swims at their own speed, distance, and intensity. Whether you prefer an easy swim, a longer session, or just a quick dip, that's completely fine.

I typically swim for 30 to 45 minutes, but feel free to swim shorter or longer.

Safety First

Please note that I am not a professional swimmer, coach, or certified lifeguard. Participation is entirely at your own risk, and everyone is responsible for their own safety and decisions.

A few simple rules apply:

• Safety always comes first.
• This is not a competition.
• Swim within your personal abilities and limits.
• Everyone swims at their own pace.
• Swimming goggles are recommended.
• Keep a safe distance from bridge pillars. While the risk may be low, currents can occur around these structures.
• Jumping from bridges is strictly forbidden.
• Respect weather and water conditions.
• Tips and advice are welcome if someone asks for them.
• While everyone is responsible for themselves, it would be great if we all kept a casual eye on each other and checked in if someone appears to need assistance.

Anyone who disregards these basic safety rules may not be invited to future events.

Lets enjoy the water and stay safe.
