The white season

Winter in Sweden is simply wonderful. The evenings get darker (and cosier by the fire!) until the snow falls, bringing with a brightening glow. In the Swedish mountains, you can ski – and much much more! All the large winter sports resorts offer a rich and varied selection of activities, including snowmobile safaris, dogsledding, reindeer rides, glacier- and ice climbing and ice-fishing, just to mention a few. For those who prefer to stay indoors, there’s plenty on offer in the hotels, restaurants, cafes and shops.
