Locknesjön, Natural lake in Jämtlands län, Sweden
Locknesjön is a freshwater lake in Jämtland with clear, deep waters that support various fish populations. The lake sits approximately 23 kilometers from the city of Östersund.
The lake formed during the last ice age when glaciers carved the basin into the landscape roughly 10,000 years ago. This glacial activity shaped the geography of the entire region.
Local anglers have long valued this lake for its brown trout and Arctic char populations. These fish remain central to how people connect with the water today.
The shoreline offers multiple access points with designated fishing spots and boat ramps that are most usable during warmer months. Visitors should know that conditions vary significantly by season.
The water is known for hosting notably large brown trout that draw anglers seeking bigger catches. These impressive fish are what many people come specifically to pursue here.
