Aursjøene - exclusive trout lakes

The Aursjøene lakes in Rendalen municipality gives you private access to some wonderful fishing areas in beautiful surroundings. The two lakes are completely sheltered and will give you the privacy and solitude many travellers are looking for. The fishing includes the two lakes and a set of rural cabins made up of timber logs.

The two lakes can be found north of Henstad on RV 3. The two cabins are situated right on the bank of the northern lake 650 meters above sea level, and the southern lake is nearly 200 meters from the cabins. There is a 7 kilometer toll road to get there. the offer is exclusive so you will not meet any other people on your stay.

Both lakes are about 150 dekar in size. The southern lake is about 6 meters deep and the northern lake has depths up to 15 meters. Both waters houses a good population of self reproducing stocks of trout. They are in good condition and are actaully in need for a degree of harvesting to keep good sized fish. So taking a few fish for the table is good for the health of the stock. Fish just under one kilo is normal and fish up to 1,5 kilo is a good sized fish here.

All styles of fishing with rod and line are permitted here, and fly fishing is good as there is little wind. We do however, recommend using a belly boat, or one of the boats that comes with the cabin.

Fish over 40 cm are to be released back into the water, and there is of course no fishing with nets.
