If you fancy something a little bit different from the usual ski resorts, why not try skiing in Finland (Lapland) for truly inspirational landscapes. Many people enjoy skiing in Finland because it is completely unspoiled, remaining a firm favourite with skiers who like to get away from it all.
Finland in winter is a magical experience. A scenic winter wonderland located deep inside the Arctic Circle. Blanketed in snow from December to April, reindeer far outnumber people here, and snow-laden trees form bizarre sculptures in a vast and silent landscape. At night the mesmerising Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) shimmer in the moonlight. By day there are exhilarating reindeer, husky and snowmobile safaris.
For some visitors the months of December and January are the most evocative, when the blue twilight of 'Kaamos' envelops the artic landscape and days pass in a palette of rose-coloured dawns and dusks. For others it is the long sunny days of March and April already longer than back home, when snow crystals sparkle in the sunlight and nature is bathed in a surreal orange glow. Days in the Arctic circle are shortest from early December to mid-January. By March and April daylight hours are longer than in the UK.
Lapland/Finland's crisp, dry type of cold is quite comfortable in protective winter clothing. Warm thermal suits and boots can be pre-booked or hired locally. We recommend: Warm ski suit or rented thermal overalls; Long thermal underwear, warm socks and boots; Several light layers of under garments; Ski goggles or sunglasses; Hats and gloves
Whichever time you choose to travel, Lapland/Finland offers a refreshingly different experience for families and couples alike, with direct flights from 3 different UK airports, short transfer times and the chance to visit Santa - of course.
