Spring Snow Adventures in Lapland

Where would you like to travel?

The best of Lapland’s spring

Spring is one of Lapland’s most beloved seasons, and for a good reason. The days grow longer, yet the nights remain dark enough to spot the Northern Lights. The crisp, sunny days and firm snowdrifts create ideal conditions for outdoor activities, from skiing to snowshoeing, while exciting events bring extra energy to the season.

Explore the highlights of spring across Lapland's top destinations!
