Rude Health Bog Schnorcheln Meisterschaften 2024 in Wales

Verpassen Sie nicht diesen lustigen Wettbewerb zwischen Teilnehmern in neugierigen Anzügen, die einen 60-Yard Torf Moor Graben so schnell wie möglich überwinden. Es ist bekannt als die Bog Snorkelling Championships und jährlich in Llanwrtyd Wells im August statt. Du brauchst keine Erfahrung und Fähigkeiten, nur deinen eigenen Wunsch zu haben. Die Flipper-Power ist der einzige Weg zum "Finish". Wenn Sie ein echter Abenteurer sind, nehmen Sie einen Neoprenanzug, Maske, Schnorchel, Flossen, und schließen Sie sich den anderen. Wer weiß, vielleicht bist du der neue Champion.

No experience or special skills are required to participate in this quirky event—just a sense of adventure and some flipper power! Anyone up for the challenge can grab a wetsuit, mask, snorkel, and fins and join in the fun. The event site also offers food and drink stalls, crafts, live music, and a real ale and cider bar, making it a fantastic day out even for those who prefer to stay dry. Please note that there is a small charge for parking at the bog site.

This year, the event will take place on August 25 at Waen Rydd bog, just outside the town, starting around 10 am. For those who are okay with a mile-long walk, the site is signposted from the town. Additionally, a free shuttle bus runs from the town square to the bog and back throughout the day, starting after 9 am.

Like many of history's greatest ideas, the World Bog Snorkelling Championship was conceived in a pub, specifically the Neuadd Arms in Llanwrtyd Wells, a small town in the Mid Wales uplands. Over three decades since its inception, the event now draws competitors from all over the globe.

In 2023, the bog snorkellers included participants from Sweden, Serbia, Ireland, Denmark, Belgium, the Netherlands, Australia, Norway, South Africa, Germany, Italy, and the USA, making this a truly international championship.
