The Mariazell region in Austria offers multiple opportunities for FLY FISHING enthusiasts. The area is known for its picturesque lakes, rivers, and streams, which are home to various fish species.

Fishing spots: Some popular locations include the Erlaufsee, Hubertusseeand the little Salza streams. These lakes and rivers provide ample opportunities to cast your fly and catch trout, char, pike, and other freshwater fish.

We love fishing because it’s one of those things you can do alone or with someone, and either way, it’s delightful.
