A WILD swimming facility has opened in secluded woodlands close to Reading.

The Wasing Wild Swim and Sauna has been created amid a backdrop of ancient trees and sparkling lake water, making it an oasis away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Being wild swimming in a lake, it can be, well, chilly, hence a wood-fired Scandinavian sauna for afterwards.

Wood-lined with larch and a Scandinavian spruce interior finish, the sauna combines with minimalism for a warming atmosphere and natural light.

Facilities also include handmade copper showers and a firepit from which an array of herbal teas are served.

The creators say that a combination of cold water immersion and heat from the sauna can not only support cardiovascular health, it can also provide relief from achy muscles, reduce pain and inflammation and help strengthen the immune response.

It can also improve circulation, boost energy levels and can increase metabolism and assist with weight management, as part of a healthy lifestyle.

Di Dugdale, Wasing Wild Swim founder, said: “Sometimes life disconnects us from nature and this is a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with the elements and revitalise and recharge both body and mind.

“Our swim community is a really magical coming together of friendly, like-minded people, meeting to swim, socialise and enjoy the indisputable health benefits.

“You don’t need to be a seasoned wild swimmer to join.”

The site offers monthly taster sessions, as well as memberships to access facilities.
