Fishing

Heinola is surrounded by lakes and fishing is therefore a popular activity. The lake Rautjärvi near to the Nowene premises is full of different types of delicious edible fish.

The Rautjärvi fishing area feels peaceful and remote, despite being within walking distance of Nowene and the city of Heinola. The fishing area spans 13 hectars and stretches over two different lakes, Rautjärvi and Venejärvi. In and around the area, you can find designated bonfire spots, lake platforms to fish from, and nature trails. You can also rent boats at lake Rautjärvi.

The lakes have been populated with salmon trout (also known as steelhead or rainbow trout), and you will find other domestic freshwater fish here as well.
