ABOUT US
The Kungsholmen Restaurant & Conference is a unique facility in the midst of Hälsingland Province’s lovely nature dating back to the timber rafting period in the 1800s. Kungsholmen lies on an island in the Ljusnan River valley with only a footbridge connecting it to the shore. Here you can enjoy a superb nature, excellent food and relaxation in a restful, familiar setting. We offer singular, all-year fishing experiences limited only by your own imagination.
Languages
At Kungsholmen Restaurant & Conference we speak Swedish and English.
Season
We hold an all-year season. Though pikeperch fishing is best during the summer, perch and pike can be caught all year. In the winter we offer angling and ice fishing for various species.
Other activities
There are many other things to do when not fishing including a wood-fired hot tub and a sauna, clay-pigeon shooting, cross-country skiing, four-wheel riding and more. For an extra touch we can pull the Arken fishing hut out on the ice complete with wood stove and bar.
The Kungsholmen Restaurant & Conference is fully licenced and can offer conferences and activities for companies.
FISHING
Pikeperch fishing is best in the spring and summer with the most effective method being vertical jigging from an anchored boat. You can even fish from the shore by slowly pulling the jig along the bottom. Pike can be fished all year, but the best seasons for catching large ones are spring and autumn. Both trolling from an anchored boat and fishing from the shore work well. Large wobblers and jigs will work with pike, though a strong tip is to lure pike with colourful, bright colours. Rapid mending with reel stops has proven effective. Perch can also be fished all year, but is exceptional during early and peak summer. For greatest effectiveness use spin-fishing with jigs or angling, both from a boat.
We have casting and angling rods, spoons and floats for sale. Our guests can borrow a rowboat or rent a canoe. We also offer guided tours on a 5.5 Blesser boat fitted with a 115 hp Evinrude Blesser motor.
Fishing equipment
In Lake Bergviken where we fish spin and cast dominate during spring, summer and autumn, and ice fishing in the winter. Lures used for pikeperch, pike and perch include variously sized jigs, as well as both large and small wobblers of various types.
Fishing regulations
You must have a fishing licence to fish in lakes and waterways ,and you must have a special licence for trolling. The fishing licences are personal and may not be transferred. While we promote catch and release (C&R), you may keep up to three fish per day and person. However, the following minimum measurements must be observed: trout and char – 30 cm, grayling – 35 cm and pikeperch – 50 cm. Fishing in running water is forbidden from September 1 to December 31.
ACCOMODATION
We have beds for as many as 44 persons in 21 rooms and two traditional cabins (härbre). Most rooms have their own fireplace and were built during the timber rafting period. Shower and WC can be found in the main building. It is also possible to rent a fully equipped 8-bed villa located on the shore about 3 km from Kungsholmen. Those who wish to live in spartan simplicity without electricity or water can rent a summer pasturage transhumance cabin.
