At the Tring swimming pond there is a sauna available and you are very welcome to swim at any time of the year. Whether you get in the water or not, an open day gives you the chance to see a swimming pond close up, talk to us, and ask any questions you may have.
Please let us know if you are interested in attending any of our open days, and we will email you more details.
If you are not able to come to one of our open days you can see videos here and below of some of our open days in recent years, both of visitors swimming in swimming ponds for the first time, and of swimming pond owners talking about their own ponds.
"I have to say it was the open day which sold the concept to us. You just have to get into the water to really appreciate it."
Sarah Lynch Kent
"Fresh water is a different experience, totally different. I had no idea when we did it."
Sarah Doukas Hampshire
"It's an immaculate temperature, that's the first thing. And it doesn't feel like swimming anywhere else..."
"It feels so clean, it's like having a really nice bath. I didn't think it would feel like this, it's something completely different."
"It's natural and it's clean as well, it's a real pleasure. And surprisingly warm."
"It's really pleasant... it's really nice to be in water that you don't have to rinse off afterwards."
