Summer in Vemdalen is a summer of endless possibilities. Only a fraction of what is on offer can be covered here. WELCOME! Dream fishing Fishing is a family activity that can be enjoyed all the year. Here, there are numerous mountains and forests with a variety of fishing waters -easily accessible lakes and tarns, as well as rivers and streams. Veman's giant graylings provide a real challenge even to the most experienced angler. Last year, the owner of Vemhåns Fiskecamp introduced a very popular pike-angling contest, and some 300 pike, the biggest weighing in at over 10 kg, were caught here. Härjedalen's fishing championships are also popular. Fishing Fishing trips arranged by the Tourist Office from July to mid-August. Tel. 0684-302 70. Ekbergs Fiske 0684-300 36.
