Lentiira Holiday Village is ideally located by the diverse fishing waters. On the lake, you can sneak in the yard or look for suitable places by boat. You can go grayling and trout fishing to the nearest Änättikoski, or to Lentuankoski and Pajakkakoski in the center of Kuhmo, which is a half-hour drive away.
We are engaging in dialogue with the local fishing cooperative and service providers to develop sustainable fishing practices in the area. The recovery of natural fish stocks in rapids areas is supported, among other things, through minimum size limits, autumn fishing bans, catch feedback surveys, and water temperature monitoring. To support our work for sustainable fishing, it's important to follow the fishing regulations and guidelines, which include catch-and-release rules for some species.
