Water Temperature: Daily Trends, Historical Records, and Forecast
❌ As of today, the minimum water temperature ranges from 47°F (8°C) to 50°F (10°C). This is still cool water, suitable only for experienced swimmers or those accustomed to cold water. Swimming in such conditions is possible, but not recommended for prolonged periods. Extra caution should be taken during extended exposure, as the cold water can cause heat loss and lead to hypothermia. For added comfort, special clothing can be used. It is important to note that these swimming tips and recommendations apply only in good weather. When the air temperature is below 68°F (20°C), and sometimes even below 77°F (25°C), swimming can be unpleasant even with relatively high water temperatures.

Actual nearshore water temperatures may fluctuate by several degrees from the reported values, especially following heavy rainfall or extended periods of strong winds. Certain wind patterns can cause colder, deeper waters to rise and replace the sun-warmed surface water, leading to noticeable variations.
Our forecast is based on a proprietary mathematical model that considers real-time water temperature changes, historical trends, key weather patterns, wind strength and direction, and air temperature specific to each region. Additionally, we incorporate data from other resorts to enhance accuracy.

The Schussen River in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, is a tributary of Lake Constance and features a varied water temperature depending on the season. In winter, the water temperature typically ranges from 4 to 8°C, while in summer, it can rise to between 18 and 24°C. These fluctuations depend on local weather conditions and tributary inflows, making it a dynamic aquatic environment.
Swimming in the Schussen is generally not recommended due to water quality concerns, stemming from agricultural runoff and urban pollution. Although the river has been part of environmental restoration projects to improve its ecological health, no official swimming areas are designated. While some locals occasionally use calm stretches of the river for recreational activities, it’s important to check water quality conditions and adhere to local regulations to ensure safety.
