Surprisingly warm clear water with brown, slippery stones and rocks. Very shallow and deceptively calm, but just enough depth to swim in a rather flattened way. Strong undercurrents threaten a sweep down-river and swimming is slow against the stream.

The water looks dark and foreboding, but this is merely the reflection of the light and the dark stones. Once you get into the river, it is less threatening and the soft fresh water welcomes the body and it is easy to launch out and submerge into the clean liquid.

Wonderful to swim amongst nature’s goodness, freedom and beauty.

Fish and bugs abound.
