May Day Morning Swim

Mark May Day with a gentle morning wander and swim in the Tweed Valley. You will leave feeling relaxed and reset.

Previous experience of wild swimming is required and you must be comfortable to walk over uneven ground.

Personal swim kit, with plenty of warm layers for afterwards.. Water shoes are essential.

Please bring a tow float if you have one.

Suitable footwear for walking on uneven terrain.

A snack to share.

Before the morning dew is gone we'll take our time to connect with this special moment of the year as we wend our way to our swim spot, gathering natural materials and ingredients for our tea as we go. After making simple May Day crowns, we will dip together in the river somewhere between Stobo and Drumelzier, exact location to be be advised closer to the time depending on conditions.

After, we'll share a snack and a wild foraged kelly kettle tea and a seasonal story.
