Mid-Norway » Angelamfi Hitra

Eldorado for Anglers

Located at the entrance to Trondheimsfjorden, Hitra is the largest Norwegian island south of Lofoten. The landscape changes from wild, open moorland to thick pine forests and rocky terrain. Hitra has excellent fishing lakes with trout and char, the densest population of deer in Europe, and a rich birdlife with many species of seabirds.

Hitra is fantastic in glorious summer weather but the nature experience can be equally uplifting when the north wind blows head on, when snow swirl in frosty cold moonlight nights.

The fish bite all year and Angelamfi is full of action summer and winter.
