The Leitha River, flowing through eastern Austria, forms part of the natural border between Austria and Hungary. The river originates in the Austrian state of Burgenland and flows into the Danube River. Its water temperature varies with the season, with summer temperatures generally ranging from 18°C to 24°C (64°F to 75°F), making it a more comfortable choice for swimming compared to many other alpine rivers. In its upper reaches, near its source, the water can be cooler, but overall, the Leitha provides a more inviting environment for swimming during the warmer months.
Swimming in the Leitha is quite popular, particularly in the calmer sections of the river, where the flow is slower and the water is less turbulent. These areas are ideal for relaxing and cooling off during hot summer days. However, it is important to be cautious near stronger currents or deeper pools. The river is also a popular spot for fishing, canoeing, and enjoying nature along its banks. For those looking for a more controlled swimming experience, nearby lakes and public pools in Burgenland and the surrounding area offer alternative options.
