Keep your routine when you visit Harrogate and the surrounding towns. Get your regular swim at any one of our pools, be it in the centre of Harrogate, the historic city of Ripon, or in the middle of Nidderdale. You will never be far from a good swim.

Have your Holiday go Swimmingly

All our pools offer lane swimming sessions in both daytime and evening slots so there will always be a time you can get some lengths in. As well as traditional lane swimming, the Harrogate pools offer a number of pool-based fitness classes and other specialist sessions.

The diving pool at the Hydro in Harrogate has seen the beginnings of careers such as that of Olympic gold medallist Jack Laugher who began his diving career there after a visit to the facility.

During the school holidays, a special timetable including fun sessions where inflatable toys are put in place provides weatherproof options for young ones to burn off energy.

Keep your Fitness Going

What better way to avoid that dreaded first session back after your holiday than to keep things going?

Whether you prefer a crack of dawn workout so the rest of the day is yours, or a late afternoon or evening session of weights, the gyms in Harrogate District offer day long opening, and state-of-the-art equipment to provide the best workout for you.

As well as annual memberships, day passes are available and friendly staff can give you an overview and introduce you to the correct use of any equipment with which you may be unfamiliar.

With fitness clubs conveniently located across the District, including Ripon and Pateley Bridge, your choice of accommodation doesn’t need to have an in-house gym, meaning you can consider self-catering or a Dales bed and breakfast, without missing out on a great morning workout just a short journey (or run) from where you are staying!

The fitness clubs in Harrogate will offer you a day membership or other short-term packages so you can enjoy the convenience of a gym, without the commitment of a gym membership.
