from the smaller streams such as Tennån and Vanån to the great river Österdalälven.

which flows right through Älvdalen on its way to Lake Siljan has plenty of grayling and trout and offers you a good selection of fishing throughout the season which stretches from May until late Autumn and even into December, on a good year.
