Fishing by yourself
In Dalarna, there are a lot of available places for fishing by yourself. The fishing areas are managed and run by local organisations and in order to fish you need to buy a fishing license for the local fishing area. If you need to update or supplement your fishing equipment, you can visit one of Dalarna’s well-stocked, specialist fishing stores.
Buy your fishing license right here. You can often buy your fishing licence at the fishing location itself, at ifiske.se, and from local petrol stations or campsites. Keep in mind that you should check any possible rules that may apply at the specific fishing location. It may, for example, be forbidden to fish during certain times of the year or with certain equipment.
