The beautiful Lake Kyyvesi extending over the areas of Kangasniemi, Pieksämäki and Mikkeli is the perfect place for fishing and hiking while enjoying interesting landscapes. Lake Kyyvesi is a real paradise for all recreational fishermen hoping to catch for example pikeperch.

There are many boating routes on Lake Kyyvesi. The protected areas of Kyyvesi have no slipways, so the slipways at Haukivuori Harbour or Kapustasalmi Strait are recommended.

Kyyvesi Fishing Cooperative was founded in 2018 to form one cooperative to cover almost all of Lake Kyyvesi. Fishing permits are sold at Wanha Osula.
