Sel fjellstyre sells licences for 39 lakes and 2 rivers in Sel and Nordre Kolloen state commons, a short distance from Otta, both inside and outside Rondane National Park. Several lakes are good brown trout lakes where trout over a kilo are taken every year. Rondvatnet (1167 m above sea level), the lakes in Illmanndalen and Søre Høvringsvatnet hold Arctic char of varying quality because of overpopulation, and perch live only in Ranglartjern near Mysuseter. The fjellstyre lends out nets and boats for free.
