The River Geul, flowing through both the Netherlands and Belgium, is a small, fast-flowing river known for its charming landscapes and meandering course through the Limburg region. Water temperatures in the Geul tend to remain cool, ranging from around 8°C to 18°C (46°F to 64°F) in warmer months. Due to these cooler temperatures and varying flow rates, the river is generally not recommended for swimming. The water levels and currents in the Geul can change rapidly, especially after rain, making swimming potentially unsafe.

While the Geul may not be ideal for swimming, it is highly popular for walking and cycling along its banks, with scenic views and lush vegetation creating an appealing environment. In certain sections, the river has been integrated into recreational parks where visitors can enjoy the surrounding nature, but these areas often restrict direct water access. For those interested in safe swimming experiences, local swimming pools or nearby lakes with monitored conditions are typically better choices.
