Discover Sweden: Top Outdoor Adventures Awaiting You

Snuggled between Norway and Finland in northern Europe, Sweden is a winter sport paradise with unique and personalized programs. Its Arctic terrain and landscape adds to its exciting Norse culture. Tourists head to Sweden for its remote wilderness in the northern part of its country, popular for both the Midnight Sun and the Northern Lights. It is the third largest country in the European Union by area, though its sparse population, mostly inhabiting the southern part of the country, makes for exciting adventures away from the crowds.  

Northern Lights and Midnight Sun!

Skiers, mountaineers splitboarders, and curious travelers alike all have a desire to see the Northern Lights at least once in their lives. Living a day with 24 hours of sunlight is a rare experience of bucket-list proportion.

Have an Arctic Blast!

Not many countries have an Arctic backyard, so it’s something you have to experience when you visit Sweden. The flora and fauna of this rarely-visited destination is compelling, filled with fan favorites like reindeer. The snow and climate is an adventure in itself.

Kullen Peninsula!

In the southern part of the country, rock climbing and other snow-free activities are wildly popular. The Kullen Peninsula - or Kullaberg - is set in an amazing nature reserve and even features a lighthouse! Take advantage of this oft-unseen part of Swedish nature and dig in to its remarkable beauty.

Despite its northern location, Sweden is warmer than other countries at the same latitude. The country has an oceanic and continental climate in the south and central regions, and a subarctic climate in the north. You can expect cold winters with cool and comfortable summers.. It is notable for receiving less precipitation than similarly geographically-situated countries.

Stockholm is the main transportation hub for Sweden, offering international flights and easy access to the European countries to its south. Oslo of Norway and Copenhagen of Denmark are very close to the Swedish border, so entering the country through these capital cities is also straightforward. To reach the north of the country, smaller regional airports and quaint country roads will lead you to wilderness destinations like the Lapland area and Abisko.

To avoid volatile weather and harsh conditions, most snow savvy travelers seek out Sweden in spring for the most favorable conditions. The snow is abundant while the weather is accommodating. Rock climbing is more enjoyable during the summer months.
