Swimming up?

[Lephuoc]

Hi all,
What do you call when you swim in the opposite direction of the current. For example, if the river flows from A to B, and you swim from B to A. So you swims up?

"Against the current" is what I'd say.

What else bro?

[Torsten]

You are swimming up the river.

Thank you all of you bro!

Hi,

I would suggest 'up-stream' is more common, even though a stream is a small river we tend to use it as a way of describing swimming or travelling against the current even for rivers.

I hope it helps Bro'
