The outer archipelago outside Nämdö offers fantastic opportunities for swimrun and swimming in open water.

Outside Idöborg there is challenging swimming around cobs and skerries and along  Long-cut rocks. If you want to run a swim run, we have a course over Långskär and  into the western part of Böteskobben and Kalvholmen, but many exciting  short swimming distances. Nämdö offers soft, varied paths, in primeval forest-like areas.

During the weekend we also do an adventure excursion to Skoboraden (Ormskär,  Brunskär, Brunskärs Trätskär) where it is possible to swim in cramped conditions  straits, canals, bays and lagoons, with shorter running distances over cliffs.

We have our base at Idöborg just outside Nämdö. There we live in a single room in  cozy house (several shared bathrooms and toilets), and full board. Breakfast in  peace and quiet outside or inside with beautiful views. We bring packed lunches  our adventures during the day. The newly built sauna with sea view will be one  nice relaxation after today's adventure. The dinner will be two dishes in  relaxing environment outside or inside. We are simply close to nature as well  when we are not training.

We train just outside and around Idöborg on Nämdö and in Skoboraden. When we  make our adventure excursion to the archipelago south of Idöborg we paddle in  about 45 minutes. If necessary, we also have transport assistance by boat.

We  keeps the group together and makes sure everyone is involved. The experience and  feeling good is what we are most looking for. Of course we train and  challenges us. We test new things and get tips and tricks about swimrun,  swimming and about training in the Archipelago.

The leader is Ulf Hausmann, who is a professional swim coach and expert  swimming and swimrun and Jonas Hållén who paddled and swam in the area in  many years and that helps us find the pearls among the islands in the area.
