Fishing and hunting Telemark

Wildlife in the heart of Telemark

Wildlife enthusiasts will appreciate the presence of elk, deer, rabbits, foxes, and large birds as common sightings at Bolkesjø. Lynxes are occasionally spotted in the area, and there have been reports of wolves and bears passing through, although encountering them is rare.

Fishing at Bolkesjø, Telemark

This area is renowned for fishing, with most lakes teeming with trout, char, and perch. At Bolkesjø we enjoy net fishing in the fall to stock up on fish for the winter, and ice fishing is a popular pastime here.

We have a simple boat by lake Follsjø, that can be rented by fishing enthusiasts. We also have various equipment that can be borrowed or rented, mostly for children or beginners.

If you are interested in net fishing and learning about the local traditions, get in touch and we are happy to make suitable arrangements.
