Game fishing and Fly Fishing

Hope you get a good catch! Fishing is for many, a good way to get close to nature. The waters of the Dachstein Salzkammergut provide you with a sense of space, and plenty of opportunity to enjoy a day out fishing.  

Many will regard the keen fisherman standing by the river or on the shore of the lake with disbelief and wonder why he can’t think of something more exciting to do in his free time. That’s what a fascination for fishing seems to be.   

What you manage to catch is, of course, part of the enjoyment. Everyone wants to catch the most, the heaviest and the loveliest fishes, but when you love going fishing, these things aren’t always the most important. 

This is where the idea of “time” comes into play. “Time” for yourself, “time” to enjoy yourself, and “time” to get close to nature. Now is the time to let your thoughts run free, and when you enjoy amateur fishing, you can just switch off, not think about anything in particular, and simply forget about everyday life.  

Fishing in our lakes, rivers and streams  

The Dachstein Salzkammergut Holiday Region is the perfect playground for fly fishing, amateur fishing or those trying out fishing as a means of relaxation.  The crystal clear waters are the habitat for a wide variety of fish such as whitefish, char, pike, trout and many others. The fishing season lasts from May to October – the perfect time for a fishing holiday in Bad Goisern at Lake Hallstatt, Gosau at Dachstein, Hallstatt or Obertraun.

 

Fishing areas in the midst of UNESCO World Heritage

Each region provided plenty of opportunity for amateur or professional fishing – surrounded of course by our breath-taking mountainous landscape!

 

Points of contact, licence distribution places, prices, conditions and details of the closed season are available at the various different fisheries. You can also buy fishing permit online on www.hejfish.com.

The Upper Austrian fisheries Association has put together a list of details of the different fishing areas and closed seasons.  

We hope you have a good catch and have fun fishing in our region!
