What's the challenge?
Sava Lake is located in the heart of Belgrade and is famous for its crystal-clear water. This is a real resort with a seven-kilometer beach uniquely located within the metropolis. In addition to swimming and walking, this place is perfect for competitions being the venue for the European and World Championships in kayak and canoeing since 1932.
Closed water area, clean and calm water, mellow season in September - it's a great opportunity for starters to stand out and for experienced athletes - to set new records.

NAUTICAL MILE (1852 m)
The distance will go from point A to point B. The finish is in different places. Swimmers will be taken by bus to the starting gate on the lake shore where the race begins.
3560 m
The distance will go from point A to point B. The finish is in different places. Swimmers will be taken by bus to the starting gate on the opposite lake shore where the race begins. You will do what many Belgrade swimmers find impossible: swim from one end of the lake to the other.
7000 m
Participants move in a circle passing buoys on the left (leaving the buoy on the right hand). Start and finish are in the same place. Swimmers will swim from one shore of the lake to another, and after going around the buoy they will return to the same point. At this distance you will cross the lake twice, which by all standards is an amazing achievement.
