The Rotach is a 39-kilometer-long river in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, which flows into Lake Constance. The river is influenced by a continental climate, which typically means moderate water temperatures in summer, averaging between 16°C and 20°C, depending on weather conditions and flow. These conditions can make the Rotach appealing for light recreational activities like wading or cooling off on warm days.

However, swimming in the Rotach is generally not a primary activity. The river's size and flow, along with occasional obstructions like fallen trees in areas such as the Rotach Gorge, make it more suited for nature exploration than swimming. It’s essential to exercise caution, as some sections may have stronger currents or submerged hazards. For those seeking a safe and structured swimming experience, nearby Lake Constance offers an excellent alternative.
