Water Temperature in Amblève River: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities

Length 93 km (58 mi)
Basin size 1,077 km2 (416 sq mi)

The Amblève River is a scenic river in the Ardennes region of Belgium, flowing through the province of Liège. It is well-known for its picturesque landscapes, with its clear waters cutting through deep valleys and forests. The river's temperature typically remains cool due to its mountain-fed source. During the summer months, water temperatures in the Amblève range from about 15°C to 18°C (59°F to 64°F). While this is refreshing for a quick dip, it is generally too cold for extended swimming, especially for those not accustomed to colder waters. In the winter months, temperatures can drop below 10°C (50°F), making swimming even less appealing.

Swimming in the Amblève is possible in some areas, particularly where the river has calm stretches or in designated spots near the towns of Stavelot or Trois-Ponts. However, caution is advised, as the river can have strong currents, particularly after heavy rainfall or during periods of high water levels. The presence of rocks and occasional submerged obstacles further adds to the potential hazards. The Amblève is better known for activities such as kayaking, canoeing, and fishing, rather than for recreational swimming. If you are looking for swimming, it is recommended to choose calmer sections and to always be aware of the river's changing conditions.
