The project entitled "RENEWABLE FISHING TOURISM SITES IN VAS COUNTY", submitted under the call for proposals TOP Plusz - Local and regional tourism development, registered with the identification number TOP_PLUSZ-1.1.3-21-VS1-2022-00005, will be implemented between January 1, 2024 and December 31, 2025. Within the framework of the project, 7 fishing waters will be developed in accordance with the Vas County Spatial Development Strategy with the non-refundable support of the European Union in the amount of HUF 199.92 million.
The tourist infrastructure development of the Bük Fishing Lake, the Kőszeg Boating Lake, the Kőszeg Brick Factory Lake, the Vassurányi Lake, the Sárvár-Rábasömjéni Fishing Lake, the Ikervár section of the Rába River and the Vasvár II Fishing Lake is taking place within the framework of the Széchenyi Plan Plus program, in a consortium led by the Vas County Association of Sport Fishing Associations. The members of the consortium are: Bük Fishing Association; Kőszeg Sport Fishing Association; Vassurányi Sport Fishing Association.
The aim of the developments is to ensure that the affected fish farming water areas and their surroundings serve the recreational needs of visitors as well as possible, provide more orderly conditions for spending free time, help to create conditions close to nature, and strive to maintain them. Small-scale infrastructural interventions in the immediate vicinity of the river section and the still waters will help to improve the image of the affected settlement, and also expand the recreational opportunities of the population living in the area and the tourists arriving there. As a result of the planned developments, in addition to the fishing waters, roads, parking lots, slopes, fishing spots, as well as benches, resting places, fishing spots for the disabled, camp toilets, event spaces, bacon grills, information boards and further welfare investments will be made.
Based on the preliminary study plans, there will be developments for fishing tourism purposes on six still waters and one river as follows: 52 benches, 30 bench sets, 11 covered bench sets, 11 fireplaces - bacon grills, 6 information boards, 6 waste bins, 3 fishing piers for the disabled, 3 covered event spaces (6 X 6 m), and the renovation of gravel roads and parking lots on nearly 6,788 m 2 , 28 tree plantings, landscaping - scrub - shrub planting - grassing - landscaping 26,165 m 2 , 82 fishing lodges and piers, construction of 3 camp toilets and 1 fishing boat mooring, 2 wooden bicycle storage facilities and a selective waste collector, 2 playgrounds.
An important part of the program is the marketing activity, which aims to present and popularize the results of the development. The planned parts of this are as follows: making 6 drone videos at the implementation sites, making 1 multilingual joint marketing publication in 5000 copies; making 2500 marketing pens; publishing 1 marketing advertisement in the Hungarian Angler magazine. Furthermore, publishing marketing PR articles in county and regional newspapers; radio advertisements on county and regional radio stations.
The active tourism opportunity developed by the project, with its year-round availability, reduces the seasonal fluctuations of county tourism and contributes to an increase in the number of tourists visiting the region, an extension of the length of stay, and an increase in tourist spending in Vas County.
The Vas County Association of Sport Fishing Associations, as the project manager leading the consortium, strives with its partners to protect the natural values of the water areas in the area of activity, and to develop and expand their tourist opportunities. Our mission is to offer joyful relaxation and wonderful fishing experiences to all anglers at affordable prices!
