Ice fishing

Ice fishing is a popular winter activity where anglers brave frozen lakes and drill holes in the ice to catch fish. With patience and camaraderie, they wait for a bite while enjoying the quiet winter landscape. It is a unique way to connect with nature and find joy in the winter wilderness.
Where should you fish?
At Bortelid, we recommend Bortelidtjønna and Rundatjønna for family ice fishing. Always remember to ensure the ice is safe before heading out. If you are more experienced, Kvitevatn or Reinetjønn may also be good options.
Equipment
Bortelid Mat sells bait and fishing gear. At the service office, you can rent complete equipment and borrow ice augers.



Try your luck ice fishing and enjoy peaceful winter days in the mountains.
