Tana - the great salmon river
Arrangement
Wild salmon visitor center in Tana
Visit us to learn about the life cycle and habitats of wild salmon. With us you can also get to know traditional Sami fishing methods that have been used in the Tana River basin for generations – including fence fishing, driftnet fishing, seine fishing and hook and line fishing. We have a small exhibition both indoors and outdoors, and you are most welcome to contact us to arrange a nature guide.
One of Europe's most legendary salmon rivers
The salmon fishing tradition in Tana goes back thousands of years. Here, Sami and Kven families have developed local fishing methods, adapted to the great river.
