2023 Portland Bridge Swim

The Portland Bridge Swim is an 11 mile swimming race in the heart of Portland, Oregon, passing under all 12 of Portland's Bridges.On the way you'll pass through a quiet natural area where bald eagles nest, then downtown where passers-by will cheer for you from the promenade and the bridges. Next up is the Port of Portland, with big ships and even bigger cranes, and the beautiful St. Johns Bridge will taunt you in the distance, leading you to wonder why you ever thought this race was a good idea. When you emerge at the finish, you will know you earned it. Come see Portland from the river!
