Skiing in Sweden
The ski resorts of Sweden stretch from Riksgränsen in the Arctic Circle, in the far north, down the backbone of the Swedish mountains in the north-west, and then wind east into the county of Dalarna.
And with its northerly latitude, most ski resorts guarantee snow between Christmas and Easter. So you can ski in Sweden against a backdrop of the Midnight Sun, and the kaleidoscopic curtain of the Northern Lights. Where else in the world can you do that?
In Sweden there are some 200 ski resorts, ranging from family resorts, with children’s facilities and activities, to larger resorts with a buzzing nightlife, restaurant and bar scene.
The ski resorts of Sweden are turned on to the idea that to keep kids happy on holiday, you have to build fun, imagination-packed snow and ice activities around them.
Want a true winter adventure? Winter adventures don’t get much more real, or exotic than mushing your own team of Alaskan Huskies in svenska fjällen, the Swedish Mountains, or in Lapland in the Arctic Circle.
If getting airborne or doing tricks on skis or a snowboard is your gig (or your kids) then you’re going to want to hit the snowparks at Sweden’s fabulous ski resorts located in central Sweden and in Lapland.
