    WHERE TO GO IN SCANDINAVIA & THE NORDICS

    Scandinavia & the Nordics map
    Two brown and white reindeer harnessed up and huddled together next to a sled, surrounded by snowy ground and the sun starting to sink below the forest on the horizon, painting the huge sky orange, pink and purple, punctured by the stark antlers of the reindeer. Finland
    Finland
    With over 188,000 lakes and 70% of the country covered in forest, Finland offers some of the most spectacular scenery and cleanest air in the world. In winter, the sea freezes and the north and centre of the country are covered in a blanket of dazzling snow, creating a magical winter wonderland. Zip across the ice on snowmobiles, drive a pack of sled dogs and meet Father Christmas in Lapland.
    View of Trolltunga jutting out high above the glorious Ringedalsvatnet Lake, shimmering blue in the sun, following jagged cliffs and snow-capped mountains as far as the eye can see. Odda, Norway.
    Norway
    The glassy surface of unfathomably deep fjords, sheer ice age cliff faces and thundering waterfalls, Norway’s natural wonders are a sight to behold. Modern innovation meets tradition in the cities of Oslo and Bergen; learn about the Viking legacy, dine on delicious local seafood and see the abstract architecture of the Oslo Opera House.
    Vibrant coloured buildings of yellows, reds, oranges and blues line the harbour, where small colourful sail boats bob in the water on a bright sunny day. Copenhagen, Denmark
    Denmark
    Denmark’s most famous export is perhaps Hygge, the art of cosy living, and the capital Copenhagen is certainly a great place to experience it! Brimming with charming canals, organic eateries and foodie markets plus stunning architecture, the city is wonderful for a short break.
    Panoramic view of a corner of the Old Town, Stockholm, basking in the sun which lights up the pretty, tall buildings in yellow and orange, reflecting in the canal below. Sweden.
    Sweden
    Grand turreted palaces, pristine forests and a colourful archipelago. Beautiful Sweden has a lot to offer. Explore Stockholm’s historic streets, walking beside the picturesque canals. Stop off for a traditional Fika coffee break with cinnamon buns in a cosy coffee shop.
