The Reyssouze River, located in the Ain department of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, is a peaceful and picturesque waterway that flows into the Saône River. Its water temperature varies throughout the year, with warmer conditions during the summer months, typically ranging from 18°C to 22°C (64°F to 72°F). This makes the Reyssouze a pleasant spot for swimming during the warmer months, especially in sections of the river where the current is slow, and the water is shallow. However, in winter, the temperature drops significantly, often hovering between 4°C and 8°C (39°F to 46°F), making swimming less appealing due to the cold and potentially unsafe conditions.

Swimming in the Reyssouze is possible in various areas, especially in the calmer parts of the river. The river is often shallow and slow-moving, which creates natural swimming holes where one can enjoy a relaxing dip. However, swimmers should be cautious of the riverbed, which may contain rocks and debris, particularly after heavy rainfall. Local water quality may also fluctuate depending on environmental factors, so it’s important to check conditions before planning a swim. The Reyssouze, while not a major recreational destination, offers a tranquil setting for those seeking a quiet place to swim or simply enjoy nature.
