ESSEX OPEN WATER SWIMS 2026 - HANNINGFIELD RESERVOIR

Wild Deer Events venture back down South to Essex and the majestic Hanningfield Reservoir which sits between Billericay and Chelmsford and we are delighted to offer you the opportunity to swim in the beautiful waters on Saturday 16th May. The site is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and as such, this opportunity does not arise very often!
There will be a marked 750m swim course and 1,500m swimmers will complete 2 laps.
There will be safety boats & first aid at the waters edge throughout the event.
All finishers will get an Event Medal, Wild Deer Merchandise, a snack and a drink.
Due to the reservoir being a Site of Scientific Investigation, dogs are not permitted anywhere around the reservoir.
