Fly fishing Aurino River (Ahr) offers a completely different pace compared to the heavy waters of the main valley. Flowing from the “Vette d’Italia” peaks down to Brunico, this river is the definition of alpine elegance. It is the premier destination in the Dolomites for anglers who value finesse, technique, and the beauty of the catch.

The Target: World-Class Grayling Fishing

The Aurino is famous across Europe for its population of beautiful and sizable Grayling (Thymallus thymallus). Known as the “Lady of the Stream,” the Grayling here are abundant and stunning. While Marble Trout and Hybrids are present, the Aurino is primarily a technical fishery for Grayling.

Exemplary Management: Solitude Guaranteed

What makes fly fishing Aurino River truly unique is the exemplary management of the entire valley. You have two excellent options to enjoy the river without crowds:

  1. Limited Access Beats: Most waters here operate on a strict cap of maximum 4 anglers per session. In reality, these beats are rarely full, meaning you often enjoy a “private” experience even without booking weeks ahead. It also includes pristine free-flowing tributaries that remain uncrowded.

  2. Ultra-Private Beats: For those demanding absolute exclusivity, we access special reserves. Note: These specific beats require booking at least 20 days in advance for permits.

Technique: Euro Nymphing is King

Let’s talk tactics. Can you catch fish on a dry fly? Absolutely, and when the conditions align, it is magical. However, Euro Nymphing remains the undisputed master technique for this river. To consistently catch fish and target the larger specimens holding in the current, you need to get down. Precision nymphing with light gear is the key to unlocking the full potential of the Aurino.
