Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast

❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 47°F (8°C) to 50°F (10°C). This is still cool water, suitable only for experienced swimmers or those accustomed to cold water. Swimming in such conditions is possible, but not recommended for prolonged periods. Extra caution should be taken during extended exposure, as the cold water can cause heat loss and lead to hypothermia. For added comfort, special clothing can be used. It is important to note that these swimming tips and recommendations apply only in good weather. When the air temperature is below 68°F (20°C), and sometimes even below 77°F (25°C), swimming can be unpleasant even with relatively high water temperatures.

*** Forecast - Our water temperature forecast

Actual nearshore water temperatures may fluctuate by several degrees from the reported values, especially following heavy rainfall or extended periods of strong winds. Certain wind patterns can cause colder, deeper waters to rise and replace the sun-warmed surface water, leading to noticeable variations.

Our forecast is based on a proprietary mathematical model that considers real-time water temperature changes, historical trends, key weather patterns, wind strength and direction, and air temperature specific to each region. Additionally, we incorporate data from other resorts to enhance accuracy.

Location & Local Information

Hørsholm, located in the Capital Region of Denmark, features several small lakes and streams that offer freshwater swimming opportunities distinct from the nearby sea. Seasonal water temperatures in local still waters typically range from about 0–4 °C (32–39 °F) in winter, rising through spring to roughly 4–15 °C (39–59 °F). In summer, lake temperatures commonly sit between 18–22 °C (64–72 °F) and can climb toward 24 °C (75 °F) during warm spells; rivers and flowing stretches are usually a few degrees cooler, around 16–20 °C (61–68 °F) in midsummer. Autumn cooling tends to bring lakes and rivers down to about 8–16 °C (46–61 °F).

Swimming in Hørsholm’s lakes and rivers is generally possible and practiced, especially at designated bathing spots with public access. Local authorities monitor water quality and post advisories if algal blooms, pollution events, or unsafe conditions occur, so swimmers should heed signs and guidance. Safety considerations include colder shoulder-season temperatures, submerged vegetation, and variable currents near weirs or outlets. Private shorelines may be restricted, so use marked public access points and follow local notices for the safest experience.
