*** 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

Lac Noir, located in the Vosges mountains of northeastern France, is a picturesque lake nestled at an altitude of 1,100 meters (3,609 feet). The lake is part of the Parc Naturel Régional des Ballons des Vosges, offering a tranquil and scenic setting. The water temperature in Lac Noir typically reaches around 18°C to 20°C (64°F to 68°F) during the summer months, which is suitable for swimming, although the cooler mountain climate means that the water may remain colder than more lowland lakes. As a result, swimming here is more popular during the warmer months when temperatures are more inviting for water-based activities.

While the lake is surrounded by stunning mountain scenery, it is important to note that swimming in Lac Noir is not always permitted due to its location within a protected natural area. The lake is primarily known for its hiking and recreational opportunities, with visitors enjoying the surrounding trails that offer panoramic views of the Vosges. For those looking to swim, nearby lakes and rivers in the region might offer more designated swimming areas. However, if allowed, the clear waters and peaceful atmosphere make Lac Noir an attractive spot for those seeking a quiet swim in nature.
