On Friday 26 December 2025, Prague's Vltava River beside Slovanský Island will host the 79th Alfred Nikodém Memorial, a celebration for winter swimmers. The race is organised by I. plavecký klub otužilců Praha.
A picture is worth a thousand words, so I will keep this brief. Today, 4 October 2025, another excellent turnout marked the start of our seventh season of winter swimming together in Frýdek-Místek.
Hello, fellow lovers of icy water! Here is your official notice: our season of winter swimming together at U Žida begins again at 9 am on Saturday 4 October 2025.
After six months of winter swimming together, we joined our friends from Beskydský ledoborec in Frýdlant nad Ostravicí to say goodbye: to the river, the weir and one another. Of course, we still see each other during the summer, but without the organised, regular meet-ups.
Our traditional end-of-season gathering for cold-water and winter swimmers takes place from 9 am on Saturday 29 March 2025. It is a joint event for the groups from Frýdek-Místek and Frýdlant nad Ostravicí.
