The Rába river

The most popular natural fishing water in Vas county is the cultic Rába river that has a varying width between 20 and 50 meters and an average depth of 2-3 meters. The continuously meandering river is one of Hungary’s least disturbed rivers and is home to more than 50 fish species. Its section in Vas is characterized by a constant water level and a magnificent wild environment. It is generally shallow, but its dammed stretches and process water channels hide deeper sections. Endangered species such as the Ukrainian brook lamprey, Barbus peloponnesius or the protected loach also live here.

This natural paradise awaits anglers all year around from the mouth of the Rába to the Nick dam, and also those who wish to relax, unwind and hike.
