The Aude River, flowing through southern France from the Pyrenees to the Mediterranean Sea, experiences notable variations in water temperature due to seasonal and regional climate changes. In winter, the Aude's temperature can range between 5–8°C (41–46°F), especially in the colder upper reaches of the river. During the summer, temperatures increase to around 18–22°C (64–72°F) in the lower sections, making certain spots more suitable for recreational activities such as kayaking and canoeing.

In the river’s upper courses, the colder water and faster flow support diverse fish species, while the milder waters of the lower river influence plant growth and allow for some riverside tourism. However, the water's cleanliness and temperature vary by location and season, so it’s wise for visitors to consult local recommendations if considering swimming.
