Filter by species, water type and size. Permit and rules information for every public venue in Sibiu and across Romania.
Sibiu county sits on the northern flank of the Făgăraș and Cindrel mountains in southern Transylvania. A chain of accumulation lakes on the upper Olt — Arpaș, Racoviță, Scoreiu — runs along the base of the Făgăraș, while Gura Râului on the Cibin and the glacial Bâlea lake high on the Transfăgărășan add mountain stillwater. The Cibin and Hârtibaciu are the main rivers.
Bâlea and the Făgăraș and Cindrel trout streams are RNP-Romsilva salmonid water (daylight only). The Olt reservoirs and lowland rivers are contracted to AJVPS Sibiu, whose regulament permits tent and caravan camping for up to 21 consecutive days (no permanent camps) and has a dedicated annex governing boat fishing at designated launch points. You need the free ANPA permit plus the association permit.
Every angler needs the free ANPA recreational permit, available online at permise.anpa.ro. It covers the Danube, its arms, the Black Sea and non-contracted public waters.
Most inland lakes and rivers in Sibiu are contracted to the county fishing association (AJVPS Sibiu), which requires its own permit — sold by the day or the year and available from the association's offices and partner shops.
Mountain trout sectors in Sibiu are managed by RNP-Romsilva: fishing is daylight only, from sunrise to sunset, with the Romsilva fishing tariff instead of the AJVPS permit. Border waters such as the Prut also need a Border Police endorsement.
Always confirm current night-fishing, boat and camping rules for the specific water — PiscaMaps shows what is confirmed for each venue.
