Fishing at Varjola - Varjola Resort & Activities

WHITE WATER FISHING

The tumbling waters of the Kuusaankoski -river are perfect for those in pursuit of lake trout. Pike, perch, whitefish and pike-perch requests the fisherman to take up the challenge. It is an unbeatable feeling to fish in the foaming rapids.

Experience one of the best fishing rivers in the southern part of Finland. At Kuusankoski-river you can also try spinning/trolling from a rowing boat.

Fishing is suitable for beginners, but also our guides have a lot to offer for experienced fishermen. With the guidance of our experts it is possible to catch, for example trouts, graylings, zander, pike and rainbow trout.

Varjola’s fishing packages are speaking and acting for sustainable fishing. In our fishing trips we obey personal catch quota. The fish that clients want for food are chosen among suitable sized fish. We especially return the big fish back to the water, after a possible photo shoot.
