Charming cabin in magnificent scenery
The Åbjøra lake lies next to the cabin. There has been caught innland trout up to 4 kg, but more common size is 300-500 grams. In 2001 a salmon ladder was built, and good populations of wild salmon and sea trout are now beeing established in the lake. Boat with outboard engine in the Åbjøra lake is included. In the autumn you will normally find an abundance of mushrooms and berries (blueberries, mountain cranberries, cloudberries) that you are free to collect.
In the mountains around the Åbjøra lake lies several smaller lakes. Our guests have Fishing rights in all of these. In addition, they have fishing rights in a group of small lakes called Nilsfinntjønnin (difficult to pronounce even for a Norwegian). These lakes are at a high altitude, and a good walk from the cabin, so we recommend bringing sleeping bags and some equipment for outdoor camping.
Our guests can also fish in the numerous lakes at Glømmen and Urvold.
PS! The guests at the neighbouring cabin “Åbjørstua” have exclusive fishing right to the river Åbjøra.
Fishing licence for approximately 6 kilometres of the Åelva river can be bought for NOK200 a day or NOK1000 for one week per person. It’s about 3 kilometres from the parking at lake Åbjørvatn down to the upper part of the beat. The salmon and sea trout populations of the Åelva river is one of the best in the region, and this 6km beat holds some of the best fishing spots in the river. The river is ideal for single hand fly fishing and light spin fishing. Some anglers prefer a two-hand fly rod on higher water levels. The fish ladder built in Åelva river in 2000 makes both lake Åbjørvatn and river Åbjøra available to salmon/sea trout, although all salmon/sea trout caught in the lake or Åbjøra river should be released.
A stay at Åbjørneset also includes fishing licence in the Terråk river which lies a 40min drive from the parking at lake Åbjørvatn. The Terråk river runs right through the town of Terråk and is easily accessed from the road or trail. The river holds both large salmon and sea trout. We recommend trying the Terråk river in combination with a trip to the local grocery market.
Åbjørneset lies in beautiful surroundings on the headland between the Åbjøra lake and the Åbjøra river. The area is full of rocky mountains, mountain lakes, and a diverse nature.
When standing outside the cabin or looking out the widows, you are in a forest, but with openings towards the lake and the riverbank located 30 meters from the cabin. During summer/Autumn, you can pick blueberries, mountain cranberries and chantarelles.
Getting to the cabin is quite simple. Park your car and cross the lake in a boat with outboard engine. Upon arrival, you are in pristine wilderness, far from any neighbouring cabin.
