Fishing

Wild Taiga fulfils every fishermans dreams. The region has dozens of different kinds of waters, where trout, stocked salmon, whitefish, grayling, pike and large perch can be caught. You can fish from the shore or on a boat using several different methods. In the winter you can fish ice holes. The fishing sites have well-maintained amenities, such as lean-to shelters, paths and signs.

Often the closest fishing opportunities are located within a walking distance from your accommodation, but the best sites are in the wilderness, by a foaming rapid or a clear forest pond. The choice is yours!

The most popular rapids in the River Pajakka for fishing in Kuhmo are Lentua and Niva near the centre of Kuhmo which can be fished all year round. In the northern part of the area the fishing areas in Hossa are recommended. These are carefully controlled to ensure plenty of fish for the future.
