The title organic salt, C8H8N3+·Cl-·H2O, exhibits a rich hydrogen-bonding network involving all constituent species. The water molecules are engaged in strong O-H...Cl interactions with the chloride anions, two neighboring protonated 2-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl)pyridinium species interact via N-H...N bonds with two pyrazole rings. Further, a short and highly directional C-H...O interaction is observed connecting the pyridinium ring to the water molecule of crystallization. Weak C-H...Cl and N-H...Cl interactions contribute to the stabilization of the crystal structure.
