Have you ever experienced the feeling of standing on a large frozen lake with a fantastic winter landscape around you? It may sound a bit strange, but ice fishing, one of the favorite activities of the people of northern Scandinavia, is not necessarily about catching a fish! It's about the Scandinavian experience and experience that you will never forget.
Take a drill, a stool and a fishing rod to one of the many frozen lakes. Drill a hole in the ice, sit on a nice reindeer skin or chair, cast your fishing rod and enjoy the serenity around you. The beauty of ice fishing lies in its simplicity. An ice fishing session could almost be seen as a kind of meditation. While you wait patiently for something to happen, you enjoy the infinity and silence.
If you have caught something, you can also taste the fish yourself around our fire pit where the caught fish is barbecued. Or you can smoke the fish in our professional smoker. Your own caught fish has never tasted so good!

The most popular types of fish you can catch are:
perch, pike, (rainbow) trout, draft / grayling, pike and burbot.


We can arrange all fishing equipment and permits for you or you will be given the location to discuss this yourself.
