We're lucky to be close to fantastic fishing waters. There's something for everyone, whether you're after the famous Göta älv salmon or a peaceful moment by a forest lake.
Göta älv: Fishing in the river requires a fishing permit, which you can easily purchase digitally via iFiske or from SFK Laxen. Be sure to check the zones and rules for the day. Buy your fishing permit here (SFK Laxen).
Lakes in Västerlanda: In the beautiful Västersjön and Torrgårdsvattnet (known for its clear water), fishing with handheld gear is free—no permit needed!
Forgot your rod? No worries. Ask us, and you can borrow fishing gear for the day.
