Summer open water swimming

17/6/2013

Now that summer is here, the VIC Swimming Club is organising weekly open water swimming sessions, open to all. Weather allowing, this will take place on:
  • Wednesdays lunchtime; meet at 12:00.
  • Fridays after work; meet at 16:00.


For now, swimming will be in Kaiserwasser, which is the body of water on the other side of Wagramerstrasse, opposite the VIC. Once the Donau water quality improves, following the recent floods, some of the sessions will be moved to the Neue Donau (between the VIC and Donauinsel).

Meet at the edge of the fountain inside the VIC, in front of Gate 1 and the café. You can use the changing rooms in F-9 before, and after for showers. Please do not bring any valuables, and by all mean, do bring a wetsuit it you think you might be cold.

You can check the water quality and temperature on our website, under the Locations section:

Wednesday 19 June, we went swimming in Gänsehäufel, which is just after Kaiserwasser. The water temperature was perfect: despite a very hot day, I could walk straight into the water without feeling cold. Definitely no need for a wetsuit! Distance from the sliproad to the bridge was 600m, so all in all, a very enjoyable 1200m swim.
