Cohuna Bridge to Bridge
From Openwaterpedia
The Cohuna Bridge to Bridge is a popular 1.5 km and 8 km river swim on the Gunbower River in Cohuna, Victoria, Australia. It is held during the first Sunday in March. The swim between two bridges started as a dare between two locals in 1992. The course heads downstream along the slow-moving Gunbower River as swimmers compete between magnificent towering river redgum trees in 27 degree C water.
