The idea of going out walking, finding a water hole and just going for it has always appealed. Problem is there are very few private places in the UK to enjoy a nice skinny dip. Has anyone any experience of real wild swimming?

    I would swim naked at night sometimes as I was growing up since I lived near a small lake, but it was not a wilderness area.  When I was in high school a friend and I took frequent hikes in the White Mountains of New Hampshire and one very hot day when we reached our destination which was a waterfall with a large deep pool of water that collected before spilling down over more rocks, we stripped naked and went for a swim.  We did that a couple more times over that summer and in later years I went there by myself and skinnydipped.  Now I go to a few different mountain lakes in Vermont and swim, but I am often not alone as they have become popular with naturists and people just looking for places to swim naked.

    We are going out to a local waterfall that has a plunge pool. Hoping to have a crack at a bit of wild swimming. It has been mentioned by several mainstream sites as one of the best places in the uk to go skinny dipping. Fingers crossed eh? I will write back with my findings and fingers crossed for some pics.

    I've skinny dipped in the Thames many times!
