Furen's FCALake Furen is located in Jönköping and Kronoberg counties in Småland. A fish sample study in 2004 yielded eight fish species: perch, bleak, bream, pike, ruffe, pike-perch, roach and vendace. In addition to these species, there are also whitefish, burbot, eel, rudd, tench and an occasional salmon trout in Furen.Furen has two swimming areas: Hyltan and Småland's Hawaii. Värnamo municipality is responsible for these municipal swimming places.Boat ramp: Furen's FCAA has had a boat ramp poured to facilitate boat launching. This is at the Småland's Hawaii swimming area. Trailers are parked at the entrance to Småland's Hawaii. Remember to always check the water level before you venture out by boat. Furen's water level regulation is extensive, with a current regulation magnitude of 1.3 m.The water level in Furen has been regulated for hydroelectric power purposes since 1927 through dams at both outlets of the Flåren River, which lies downstream.
The water level regulation is very extensive. In a 1923 water-rights court ruling the water level was allowed to fluctuate between +152 m and +149.4 m, a difference of 2.6 m. To bring about more moderate regulation, a voluntary agreement was reached with the Sydkraft utility company in 1996. As things now stand, the regulation is only half of what it once was – i.e., 1.3 m.
