Length 95 km (59 mi)

The Ouche River, flowing through the Burgundy region of eastern France, is a charming tributary of the Saône River. The Ouche’s water temperature varies across the seasons, typically ranging from about 5°C (41°F) in winter to around 18°C (64°F) in summer. The warmer summer months of July and August are the most inviting for water activities, though the river’s smaller size and moderate flow often make it better suited for leisurely enjoyment rather than active swimming. The cooler temperatures in spring and fall are less suitable for swimming but offer scenic views and are popular with visitors enjoying outdoor activities along the riverbanks.

Swimming options along the Ouche are somewhat limited due to its narrow flow and shallower areas, but there are a few accessible spots where locals enjoy wading and quick dips. The river's natural setting, with shaded areas and picturesque villages along its banks, makes it ideal for picnics and riverside relaxation. Caution is advised when entering the water, as currents can vary depending on recent rainfall and water levels, particularly after a heavy rain. While the Ouche River may not be a primary destination for swimming, it offers a peaceful atmosphere for those seeking a refreshing pause in nature.
