Welcome to Visten's fishing conservation area, one of Forshaga municipality's largest fishing areas. We can offer fun and varied fishing in many types of water. Everything from trolling fishing in Visten - our largest lake - to angling in Kvarntorpsån, an idyllic stream in beautiful nature. Very close by is also Forshagaforsen which is one of the best salmon fishing waters in the Nordic countries. From the veranda of Klarälvsrummet you can, if you're lucky, see the salmon jumping into the rapids!
