A Year-round Destination

The entire year, people travel to Finland. Finland has four beautiful unique seasons. White nights throughout the summer mean that everything is bathed in gorgeous, dazzling light. Finns enjoy spending their summer vacations outside, whether they are hiking, biking, canoeing, or simply relaxing on a pier with a book. It's always sauna season in Finland's major cities, and there are intriguing things to see and do there all year long.

As the days grow shorter and fall approaches, Finnish nature dons its finest attire: the color scheme glows in stunning tones of red, yellow, orange, purple, green, and brown. In Finnish Lapland, spring and fall are the greatest times to see the Northern Lights. The finest skiing season in Lapland is from late March to early May; by that time, the snow will have melted in the south.

Winters in Finland are lengthy and bitterly cold, with beautiful snowscapes. Enjoy cross-country skiing, downhill skiing, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling throughout this enchanted season. The shortest season in Finland is spring, which is when all the snow begins to melt and the flora and fauna reappear.
