Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 47°F (8°C) to 50°F (10°C). This is still cool water, suitable only for experienced swimmers or those accustomed to cold water. Swimming in such conditions is possible, but not recommended for prolonged periods. Extra caution should be taken during extended exposure, as the cold water can cause heat loss and lead to hypothermia. For added comfort, special clothing can be used. It is important to note that these swimming tips and recommendations apply only in good weather. When the air temperature is below 68°F (20°C), and sometimes even below 77°F (25°C), swimming can be unpleasant even with relatively high water temperatures.

*** Forecast - Our water temperature forecast
Actual nearshore water temperatures may fluctuate by several degrees from the reported values, especially following heavy rainfall or extended periods of strong winds. Certain wind patterns can cause colder, deeper waters to rise and replace the sun-warmed surface water, leading to noticeable variations.
Our forecast is based on a proprietary mathematical model that considers real-time water temperature changes, historical trends, key weather patterns, wind strength and direction, and air temperature specific to each region. Additionally, we incorporate data from other resorts to enhance accuracy.

The Ilz River is a scenic waterway in Bavaria, Germany, that flows through the picturesque forested landscapes of the Bavarian Forest before joining the Danube River. Known for its clear waters and relatively untouched natural environment, the Ilz is a popular spot for outdoor activities such as kayaking, canoeing, and hiking. When it comes to swimming, the water temperature of the Ilz River tends to remain cool, even in the summer months, due to its mountain origins. In spring and autumn, the water temperature is typically between 5°C and 12°C (41°F to 54°F), which makes it too cold for many people to swim comfortably. However, in the summer months, the temperature may rise to around 15°C to 20°C (59°F to 68°F), making it more suitable for those looking for a refreshing swim.
The current of the Ilz River is generally moderate, but it can vary depending on the weather and the time of year, especially after rainfall or snowmelt. Some parts of the river may have stronger currents, so swimming is best done in calmer sections, particularly where the flow is slower and the water is more inviting for a dip. While the Ilz is not a typical destination for casual swimmers, it offers a unique opportunity for nature lovers to experience the river in a serene and unspoiled setting. For those who enjoy more adventurous activities, such as kayaking or rafting, the Ilz provides a thrilling experience with its winding curves and clear, fresh water.
