Lakes & fishing
Water sports, fishing and boating in Ylöjärvi
Nature in Ylöjärvi is characterised by numerous lakes. In the east, Ylöjärvi is bordered by Lake Näsijärvi, in the west there’s Lake Kyrösjärvi with its wide open waters, and in the north we have Lake Aurejärvi. These and dozens of smaller lakes attract anglers, boaters and swimmers.
The Zanderland website provides extensive information on the fishing areas and permits in the Tampere Region. Fishing permits can be purchased online from the Metsähallitus website.
The Kalaan.fi website contains information about fishing spots in almost all municipalities, including Ylöjärvi.
On the pages of the Federation of Finnish Fisheries Association, you can find general information about fishing and permits. The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry both regulates fishing rights and methods and promotes the management of fish stocks to ensure their vitality.
