Ice Fishing in Rautavaara

An ice fishing day in Rautavaara is a relaxing experience spent outdoors in the fresh air, surrounded by beautiful nature. How about spending the day catching perch for kalakukko or fillets, or tempting the clever rainbow trout of Viilekelampi onto a strong line? Every now and then luck strikes – many anglers return from Rautavaara smiling with an excellent catch, perhaps also taking home some fresh local bread or pastries along the way.

Getting started with ice fishing in Rautavaara has been made easier with the addition of ice fishing parking areas. Ice fishing parks have been established at Lake Keyritty, Viilekelampi and Alasjärvi, making it easier to park your car. In winter, snowmobile tracks are sometimes prepared on the ice, helping anglers move around more easily.

P.S. If you are heading to Viilekelampi, remember to obtain the required fishing permit.

So grab your gear and head out onto the ice – great catches and tight lines await!
