Water Temperature in Leverkusen: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Leverkusen, located in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany, is known for its location along the Wupper River. The Wupper River, passing through the rugged, hilly terrain of the Bergisches Land, significantly influences the city's scenic landscape. However, the water temperature of the Wupper River typically varies with the seasons. During the summer period from July to September, the temperature ranges from 15°C (59°F) to 20°C (68°F), making it relatively cool as compared to other destinations.

Swimming in the river, though technically possible, is generally not recommended. The Wupper River, like many other rivers in North Rhine-Westphalia, is not officially designated for swimming due to several factors. The rivers’ water quality might not meet the safety and hygiene standards required for bathing. Additionally, rivers can be hazardous due to unpredictable currents, sudden changes in depth, hidden debris, and pollution. Even with suitable temperatures in summer, it is advised to stick to managed swimming areas, like public pools and officially recognized bathing areas that ensure safety, hygiene, and water quality, unless there is official information stating otherwise about the suitability of the Wupper River for recreational swimming.
