When is Swim Serpentine? Saturday 17th September 2024 Half-Mile Swim: Features half a lap of the world-famous lake in London’s Hyde Park and is a great option if you’re looking for an achievable but memorable swim at this iconic event. One-Mile Swim: This is the most popular of all the swim distances at Swim Serpentine with swimmers taking anything from 20 minutes through to one hour to complete it. Two-Mile Swim: For those who would like to test themselves with two full (1.6km) laps of the Serpentine. Aimed at more experienced swimmers who have already completed a mile open water swim previously. Super-Six Swim: If you love the camaraderie of outdoor swimming events but want to go that little bit further (OK, quite a lot further), this is the distance for you!
