Dyfi Aquathlon 26K
THE LONGEST AQUATHLON IN THE WORLD
What is it?
Forging new boundaries in aquathlon, it's the infamous Dyfi 13km swim, followed by a stunning 13km trail run back to Aberdyfi along the beautiful Wales Coast Path.
Dyfi Aquathlon is an aquathlon, not a swimrun, so you can change into running gear at transition. We will get your drop bag to the end of the swim, and get your swim kit back to the finish.

Charity Fundraising
The coffee & cake morning hosted by Dovey Yacht Club on 1st Oct, raised £708 for Macmillan Cancer Support, thank you for helping to make it such a successful morning.
All finishers of the Dyfi 13km received a hand painted rock made by the team from Aberdovey Rock Shop. 100% of their work is dedicated to the fundraising efforts of local woman Jan Jeffrey who is currently carrying out her charity work in Losotho, Africa - read about Jan's work here. The Dyfi 13km raised £300 towards Jan's charity work.
THE TAFOL TUMBLE 8KM
Starting form Aberdyfi beach swim all the way to a pebbly beach where the River Tafol joins the Dyfi Estuary. Here you will "tumble-turn" and swim back to Aberdyfi, your tumble will coincide with the turning of the tide, more or less! A total of 8km.
We provide guiding for small groups on The Tafol Tumble route, and on the "Hurly Burly" route on the Mawddach estuary.
