Water Temperature in Buskerud County: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Original name of the region: Buskerud fylkeskommune

Buskerud County, located in southeastern Norway, does not have a direct coastline along the open sea but features several large lakes and fjords, including parts of the Oslofjord. Water temperatures in these inland and coastal areas vary significantly depending on the season. During winter, from December to February, the water temperature in the fjords and larger lakes can drop to around 0°C (32°F) to 3°C (37.4°F), with some smaller lakes experiencing surface ice formation. The cold conditions make winter swimming a challenge, primarily for those accustomed to ice bathing.

As temperatures rise in spring and summer, the waters in Buskerud become more inviting. By June, temperatures in the fjords and lakes typically reach around 10°C (50°F) to 14°C (57.2°F), while in July and August, they can peak at 17°C (62.6°F) to 20°C (68°F) in shallower and more sheltered areas. The Oslofjord, which partially borders Buskerud, tends to warm up more quickly than open coastal waters, making it suitable for swimming and other recreational activities. However, variations in depth and weather patterns can cause fluctuations in temperature, so checking local conditions before entering the water is always advisable.
