Sweden Holidays: Winter Holidays in Sweden for Independents, Families & Groups

Winter > Winter Other

Winter is a magical time in Sweden. Snow lies in a thick blanket across much of the country, the days are shorter but the nights are long and cosy, filled with candlelight and laughter, and in the north the night-time skies are alive with the dancing Northern Lights. Sweden is a marvellous destination for winter activities. Listed here is a selection of winter experiences from ice skating on frozen lakes to the winter farm holiday of your childhood dreams.
