Fishing

Fishing is a pleasant way of relaxation surrounded by the sounds of nature.

Sava Dolinka river (from the barrier in Moste to the confluence with the Sava Bohinjka river in Radovljica)
It is one of the most picturesque areas to fish. The area is less than 5 km away from our apartments. The district begins in the pools under the hydro power plant Moste and concludes just before the confluence of the Sava Dolinka and the Sava Bohinjka in Radovljica. The route of this water basin runs through the unspoiled nature in the valley Piskovce, through rapids in Berje and Lisice and through the famous camp Sobec in Lesce. You can trace some first class specimen of brown, rainbow and brook trouts, graylings and huchens but even some chubs are not strangers to these waters.

Zavrsnica reservoir
Fishermen can test their skills as well as their luck on the Zavrsnica reservoir, which is less than 1 km away from our apartment. The lake is home to brown trouts, rainbow trouts and graylings but the fishing for grayling is forbidden.
