Water Temperature in Olkusz: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Olkusz, located in the Lesser Poland Voivodeship, is home to several bodies of water, including rivers, ponds, and lakes, that offer both scenic views and recreational opportunities. The town is crossed by the Biała Przemsza River, a river that, while important to the region, is not typically used for swimming. The water in the Biała Przemsza River remains relatively cold, with temperatures ranging from 10°C to 15°C in the summer, which makes it unsuitable for comfortable swimming.

For those seeking warmer waters, Olkusz also offers several small lakes and ponds in the vicinity. These bodies of water tend to warm up faster than rivers, with summer temperatures reaching around 18°C to 22°C, making them more suitable for swimming. These natural swimming spots are particularly popular in the summer months, offering a refreshing escape from the heat.
