La Saône is a river-based kitesurfing spot located in Switzerland where the Saône River widens into a more open section. The spot features an east-facing coastline with the river running roughly north-south through agricultural land. This is a sheltered inland water body with limited fetch, resulting in very poor wind reliability (0.9%) and low average wind speeds of 4.9 knots. The narrow river channel constrains the riding area, and vegetation along both banks can create turbulent wind conditions. Water temperatures average 13.3°C, requiring thermal protection. The spot is most suitable for beginners due to low intensity conditions when wind is available, though finding rideable conditions will be challenging. Kiters should be aware of river currents, shallow sections, and potential underwater debris. The spot requires northerly winds for optimal side-shore conditions. Given the extremely low wind reliability and inland location, this spot should be considered marginal for consistent kitesurfing practice and may only be viable on occasional windy days.
