The river is largely surrounded by dense forests and marshland. It is one of the few rivers in Sweden that still possesses its original strain of Baltic Salmon. It is a common fishing location known for its large salmon and trout populations and fishery conservation area. The river offers multiple fishing sites with widths ranging between 40 and 80 meters and an average flow velocity of approximately 41m3/s. Approximately 40km of the river contains rapids and/or currents which can be quite powerful.
