The River Gulp flows through the Netherlands and Belgium, originating in the German municipality of Moresnet and winding through the Limburg region. The Gulp is a smaller, relatively shallow river known for its picturesque surroundings, including lush forests and rolling hills. During the summer months, the water temperature in the Gulp typically ranges between 10°C and 18°C (50°F to 64°F), which remains on the cooler side for most swimmers. Due to the river's relatively shallow nature and variable currents, swimming is not commonly recommended, especially in areas where the water depth is insufficient or where the flow can become strong after rain.

For visitors looking to enjoy the natural beauty of the Gulp, the river is an excellent spot for walking, cycling, and birdwatching. Though swimming in the river itself is discouraged due to water conditions, certain recreational areas in the region may offer alternative swimming opportunities in controlled environments such as swimming pools or nearby lakes. The river is still a beloved destination for nature lovers and those seeking a peaceful outdoor experience.
