On a hot summer’s day, what could be more refreshing than slipping into the cool, clear waters of a secret lake? And what could be more exciting than plunging into a hidden waterfall? Britain’s rivers, lakes and waterfalls are cleaner, safer and more accessible than at any time in living memory and the health benefits of a natural dip are increasingly well known. To celebrate, award-winning author and photographer Daniel Start returns with this revised and expanded version of the best-selling guide to Britain’s swimming holes.
This is the 2013 (2nd edition) which is the newest edition available.
For local / regional (non UK) coverage of wild swimming places, you will find more places, and the additional coastal locations, in our individual Wild Guides, or more detail in the Wild Swimming Walks series.
