⚠️ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 54°F (12°C) to 60°F (15°C). The water is significantly warmer, and swimming becomes possible for most people. However, caution may still be required for prolonged stays in the water, as extended exposure can cause discomfort. This is a suitable temperature range for short swims and for those accustomed to cooler water. For more comfortable swimming, it is recommended to use proper gear. 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
Lago di Ceresole is a high‑altitude reservoir in Piedmont fed largely by snowmelt, so its surface temperatures remain cool even in summer. Typical seasonal surface ranges are roughly 4–12 °C (39–54 °F) in spring and autumn, rising to about 12–18 °C (54–64 °F) on the warmest summer days, and falling to around 0–4 °C (32–39 °F) in winter when parts of the lake can freeze. Temperature can vary with depth and near inflows and dam outlets, where cold currents are common; on warm afternoons the shallowest bays will feel a few degrees warmer than open water.
Swimming in Lago di Ceresole is generally not permitted or is strongly discouraged because it is an artificial reservoir with dam operations, steep banks, sudden depth changes and powerful currents near intakes and spillways, all of which create significant safety hazards. The lake also lies within a protected mountain environment, and local regulations may restrict bathing to protect water quality and natural values. Anyone considering water activities should check current municipal or park signage and rules; the cold temperatures alone pose a hypothermia risk even for experienced swimmers.
