Course
An open water swim in a very special stretch of the River Thames, just 2.5 km up stream from Henley On Thames Town Centre. The River will hardly be flowing and is nearly static at this point in the river and perfect for all types of swimmers. Shiplake College offers great facilities for all spectators, where spectators can watch from the shore. Spectators can watch the bike course from the side of the road on the perimeter of college grounds, plus take a scenic walk around the college grounds.
