Our area offers opportunities for varied fishing for a variety of species in both lakes and rivers with light flowing water. Common catches are pike and perch, but also zander in the summer. For those interested in angling, there are several good calm waters where catching larger bream and tench is possible. We are proud to have aspen in our waters - enhanced protection applies to these, which means careful handling and release requirements all year round.
Kolbäcksån with Strömsholms kanal is a tourist attraction where it is possible to see how a lock is made up close at the double lock in the middle of Surahammar.
If you are lucky and are extra vigilant, you may see the resident but shy beavers in the stretch of river between Magsjön and Östersjön. There are at least three different beaver huts.
