Guided fishing adventures in the wild North of Finland
Discover Summer Fishing in Finland’s Pure Northern Nature
Ruka–Kuusamo is one of Finland’s most unique summer fishing destinations. Crystal-clear lakes, flowing wilderness rivers and the endless light of the midnight sun create unforgettable conditions for fishing adventures in the Arctic North.
Whether you are an experienced angler or trying fishing for the first time, our professional guides will take you to the best waters of the season and tailor the experience to your wishes. Peaceful nature, fresh air and authentic northern landscapes make every fishing trip much more than just catching fish.
Guided Fishing Trips for All Skill Levels
Learn the secrets of fishing together with a local guide!
Our guided summer fishing trips are suitable for beginners, families, groups and experienced fishing enthusiasts alike.
We provide all the necessary fishing equipment, transportation from Ruka, and delicious campfire snacks enjoyed in nature. During the excursion, your guide will teach techniques, share local knowledge and help you make the most of your day on the water.
The most common catches are perch, pike and whitefish, but with a bit of luck, you might even reel in a grayling or trout.
Depending on the season and your interests, fishing can take place on lakes, rivers or remote wilderness waters.
