What could be nicer than swimming down the Basel Rhine in summer...but be careful: anyone who swims in the shipping channel is putting their life in danger. This film shows why large tankers on the Rhine can hardly brake and why they hardly see Rhine swimmers. So please always stay in the swimming zone! All information about safe swimming in the Rhine can be found on the website of the Basel-Stadt cantonal police: https://www.polizei.bs.ch/verkehr/rhe... And here is the map with the swimming zones marked: https://www.polizei.bs.ch/dam/jcr:67b...
