Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges less than 41°F (5°C). Such water is extremely cold and not recommended for swimming without proper preparation. In these conditions, the risk of hypothermia is very high, and prolonged exposure to the water can be hazardous to your health. If you decide to swim, it is important to have the appropriate gear, such as a wetsuit. Typically, only experienced swimmers or those who practice winter swimming venture into such waters. 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
Kedträsket in Västerbotten County typically follows the seasonal temperature patterns of small boreal lakes. In winter the surface is usually ice-covered and water temperatures are at or below 0 °C (32 °F), while spring thaw brings temperatures up from about 0–8 °C (32–46 °F). During the warmest weeks of summer the lake commonly ranges from roughly 12–22 °C (54–72 °F), with shallow bays sometimes warming a few degrees higher on heatwave days. In autumn the water cools again, often sitting around 5–10 °C (41–50 °F) before freezing resumes. Local variation depends on depth, inflow, and recent weather, so spot measurements can differ from these typical ranges.
Swimming in Kedträsket is generally possible and commonly practiced in summer months because public access to natural waters is broadly permitted in Sweden and there are no inherent legal prohibitions on entering the lake. Practical considerations determine whether people swim: water temperature will affect comfort and safety, there are usually no lifeguards or facilities, and ice cover makes winter swimming hazardous without proper training and equipment. Swimmers should also be mindful of water quality (occasionally affected by runoff or algal growth), submerged hazards, and private shoreline sections; checking local signage and conditions before entering the water is advisable.
