Kantsjön and the fishing waters in the surrounding area

Gäddtjärn is listed as a fishing water for rainbow trout and trout. Brook char and trout are mentioned for Stor-Rödtjärnen, and trout and perch for Fäbodtjärnen.

These differences make the waters interesting for travellers who do not want to spend every day in the same way. If fishing is the main focus of your stay, you can already take the species of fish and waters mentioned into account when planning your trip. For families or travel groups with different interests, the stay can also be combined with other ideas involving nature and culture, without every day having to follow the same pattern.

A nature-oriented experience at Kantsjö Canal

The Kantsjö Canal offers a nature-oriented experience: the journey follows a stream on an air mattress or in an inflatable boat. This provides a special perspective on the landscape, because the focus is not merely on viewing a body of water, but on travelling on the water. If you choose a holiday apartment or other accommodation in Kantsjö, this experience may be the deciding factor in leaving enough time in your plans for an excursion centred around the water.

The canal complements the character of the fishing waters with a different kind of nature experience. While the focus at Kantsjön, Gäddtjärn, Stor-Rödtjärnen and Fäbodtjärnen is on the fish species mentioned, the Kantsjö Canal is about travelling along a stream. You can therefore arrange the available information according to your preferred travel pace and personal interests.

Cultural and historical points of interest around Kantsjö

The local history also offers its own perspective. Kantsjö fäbodar is recorded as a fäbod site. In the area around Kantsjö, Trehörningsjö kyrka was built in 1836 and completed in 1882. For those interested in culture, the church is therefore a specific point of interest distinct from the water-related experiences. You can thus plan your stay in Kantsjö with a stronger focus on nature or also turn your attention to regional architecture and local history.
