Swim in the Heart of Eryri

Snowman Swim 2025
If you love open water swimming this is your chance to experience an incredible open water swim race in the stunning Llynnau Mymbyr, in the heart of the Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park.
One of the most photographed spots in Eryri, with Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) reflecting in the water; if you want a swim with a view, this is unbeatable. The lake is around 3/4 mile long, with a depth of 30 feet and a delta halfway along the north shore which bisects the lake and gives it its plural name.
