Alvdal fellesfiskekort

One joint licence covers five fishing areas in Alvdal. Glomma and Folla lie within easy reach on the valley floor and offer tens of kilometres of fishing close to the road, with good stocks of grayling and brown trout. Sølndalen holds Arctic char and brown trout of fine quality, suits a canoe well and gives easy access to several lakes. Aumdalen is for anyone who wants to walk in to quiet tarns with plenty of pan-sized trout, and Kvebergstjønna and Strålsjøen (714 m above sea level) hold both brown trout and Arctic char. Kvebergstjønna is well managed with stocked brown trout.
