Loch Venachar SC

Another cracking day @lomondtrossachs Loch Venachar - flat-calm for a lunch time swim, and slightly less flat-calm for an afternoon sail… Thanks to the Rangers out and about looking after everyone and keeping the passing places clear.

Wild swimming & paddleboarding are increasingly popular so we want people to enjoy these as safely as possible. It's essential to get to know safety advice, particularly the risks of cold water shock & steep drops close to shore. Read & share our advice at lochlomond-trossachs.org/watersafety/

Fantastic to be back @LochVenachar @lomondtrossachs for the @scotswimwest @ScottishSwim Open Water Swimming District Championships #lifesaving @RLSSUK @WaterSafetyScot

Stunning night for racing! @LochVenachar 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿☀️⛵️😎👍🏻

@IonaMccroary Thank you for coming. Glad you enjoyed it, and sorry for the late reply!

@BBCScotWeather Stoater of an afternoon at Loch Venachar today for this week’s swim.

Callander isn’t necessarily the first place that springs to mind when someone says ‘sunset swim’... but it did a pretty good job this weekend with Loch Venachar!

Good luck to Ruben Stokroos representing Loch Venachar in the @RYAScotland Spring Club Championship from 4.15pm BST The @VirtualRegatta app supports spectating if you want to see how he goes.

Just signed up for the first @RYA #SailFromHome Rules webinar tonight. The series looks really good for any racing sailor or club official, starting with an introduction/overview. You can watch a recording later if you can’t make tonight. ^M rya.org.uk/newsevents/new…

@garryhale @lomondtrossachs The race was cancelled, but registered runners get to submit a 10k time from this weekend. So they are real runners in a virtual race. That’s too long for a hashtag though.

@LochVenachar @lomondtrossachs Virtual runners?

Great to see so many #virtualrunners on the road doing the #Callander10k. #Active #SelfIsolation @lomondtrossachs

The first Hale #sailing #selfie of the year spotted in the wild. A sign spring is on the way? 🤞

Ready to go for the @ryascotland 420 academy. Hope for more of the #sum and less of the #snow, even if it is pretty. #trossachs #sailing @ Loch Venacher Sailing Club instagram.com/p/B9JVNWIgjrY/…
