Season 26/27

Every weekend this winter we meet at 10:00 on the shores of Berlin, on Saturdays at Plötzensee and at Regattaufer in Alt-Stralau and on Sundays at Schlachtensee. The season starts with an inaugural dip in Alt-Stralau on 31 October 2026, one week before the other two lakes join on 7 and 8 November.
