Try your luck at fishing

You can also experience fishing in Ullared, and there’s even fishing near the department store! Relax by yourself or bring your company and fish in Högvadsån, which flows behind Gekås and past Gekåsbyns camping.

What are you catching?

Högvadsån is Ätrans’ largest tributary with a completely self-producing salmon stock and flows right next to Gekåsbyn campsite. But although salmon fishing has always been the focus, there are many other fish species to hook, including trout, pike, perch, eel and more.

Buy a fishing license easily

From April 1 to September 30, you can buy your fishing license directly at the Gekåsbyn check-in (see current opening hours here). If you prefer to arrange it digitally, it is just as easy via the iFiske app, where you can download the app and buy your fishing license directly on your mobile.
