The top resorts to visit in Lapland include Levi, Ylläs, Phya and Saariselkä. Our 4 resorts across Finland all ensure you will have the most magical Lapland experience. Stay above the Arctic Circle where you can soak in the sights of the wilderness, enjoy the full Finnish sauna experience, search for the Northern Lights or curl up by the fire.
Yes, with an average of 200 days of fresh snowfall each year between November and May, Finland has some of the best snow-sure resorts due to their location in the Arctic Circle. Inghams offer 3 great resorts for you to choose from. Skiing in Lapland is perfect for families and beginners looking for gentle slopes, and for those looking to try something a little different, cross country skiing is available in all four resorts - Levi, Ylläs, Phya & Saariselkä.
Both Levi and Ylläs are above the Arctic Circle, so it is essential to bring the right clothing to make sure that you and your children are kept warm and happy throughout your visit. Please make sure you bring cosy woollen socks, gloves, thermal underclothes, hats and a scarf or balaclava to cover your face if necessary with you! We also recommend you also bring some additional mittens or gloves (ideally waterproof ones for children’s snow play) to be worn next to the skin. Layers are the key to keeping warm here and are far more effective than one or two thick items, so the thermals, a shirt or roll-neck fleece and a jacket/anorak under your suit when outdoors is recommended.
