National Park «Pripyatsky» is endless channels, hundreds of ancient lakes, impenetrable thickets of willow shrubs . The park is home to 37 fish species out of 40 found in the Pripyat basin. You will not find such fishing opportunities and abundance of trophies not only in Belarus, but also abroad.

Basically, fishing is practiced from a boat with a guide escort. The fishing grounds of the Pripyatsky National Park are especially popular with supporters of trophy fishing. Catfish often reach a weight of more than 80 kg, carp, zander and pike – more than 15 kg, asp – more than 6 kg, bream – more than 4 kg.

Along with fishing, our guests can enjoy the view of the beautiful floodplain lands, which, combined with the riverbed, quiet old oxbows, overgrown along the banks with water lilies, yellow water-lilies and reeds, create a calm atmosphere.
