Swimming

It is important to us that everyone has the opportunity to enjoy and benefit from the Aura River. Swimming plays an important role in creating positive Aura River experiences for people of all ages. There are no public swimming areas in the Aura River. The Aura River Foundation is committed to improving swimming opportunities along the river, including negotiations with landowners, monitoring water quality, creating and maintaining safe swimming areas, and communicating about them.

Public swimming areas in the Aura River area can be found on the uimaan.fi website.
