Fishing Atlantic Salmon

Fishing experience of a lifetime

The first fly-fishing enthusiasts discovered the marvels of the river Teno in the 19th century, which can be considered as the beginning of recreational fishing tourism in the largest and most beautiful salmon river in Europe. The various forms of recreational fishing, such as lure angling and fly-fishing, are modern activities.

The beautiful river valley makes the river Teno unforgettable scenery for your fishing experience. The midnight sun and the very clean water are parts of the fishing moments of a lifetime. The Teno river is one of the best salmon rivers in Europe.

We recommend fishing with local guide for the best experience. Anyone fishing on the River Tenojoki must pay a fisheries management fee and purchase a angling permit for the River Teno. It is necessary to book the permits early in advance as the number of permits is restricted. The permit comes automatically once you book he package with us.

Utsjoki is an area known for its clean and beautiful nature. Please keep it that way and leave your surroundings free of any trash and take with you any gear or trash you take to the nature.

Please make it sure first that fishing is available as it is very restricted.

If you want to try something else or you travel to the area outside the salmon fishing season, there are other great fishing options as well. The trout and arctic char lure many fishermen to the neighboring fells in the winter for ice fishing. To have a cup of hot drink while fishing at a frozen lake is a great winter experience as well as a glimpse to the local life.
