The Rot River in Germany is a smaller tributary of the Danube, flowing through the picturesque regions of Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria. Known for its tranquil and natural surroundings, the Rot has a moderate flow and is fed by springs and local tributaries. Water temperatures in the river vary depending on the season, ranging from 4-6°C (39-43°F) in winter to 15-20°C (59-68°F) during summer months. The cooler temperatures make it less ideal for swimming early in the year but more appealing during the warmer season.

Swimming in the Rot is possible in certain calm and accessible areas, though it is not as commonly frequented as larger rivers. The banks of the Rot are more known for walking, picnicking, and enjoying nature. If swimming is attempted, it’s recommended to stick to shallow areas where the current is mild. Always check local guidelines, as some areas may be protected or less suitable for recreational activities.
