Join us on the Dalälven River for a fishing and nature experience among large bays, sheltered coves, and flowing waters. The tours depart from Söderfors and mainly take place in areas such as Untrafjärden, Kågbosjön, and the Bredforsen Nature Reserve.

There are excellent opportunities here to fish for pike, perch, and zander. In the flowing sections, you’ll also find grayling and trout.

Depending on the weather, wind, and your preferences, we’ll choose the best spot for the day. During the tour, you’ll experience the unique landscape of the Dalälven River, with its narrow straits, open stretches of water, rich birdlife, and beautiful nature. You’ll often have the chance to spot eagles, herons, ospreys, beavers, and roe deer along the riverbank.

On longer trips, we can stop at a rest area for coffee and snacks, a packed lunch, or a simple meal. On hot summer days, the trip can also be adapted to include swimming, relaxation, or an outing to natural sandy beaches and cliffs.

For those looking for more excitement, there’s also the chance to try water sports such as tubing, kneeboarding, wakeboarding, and other water activities.

Prices start at 1,500 SEK. We'll decide together what the focus of the day will be before we set out.
