Say hello to a smorgasbord of winter fun

They’re not as tall or spectacular as their Alpine counterparts but the Swedish hills are made for skiing and winter holidays.

The perfect escape for families and skiers looking for a winter break with a difference.

They gave the world vikings, flat-pack furniture and meatballs, not to mention some great pop acts. But Sweden has another ace up its sleeve – and that’s its skiing. Their mountains aren’t as tall, pointy or dramatic as their counterparts in the Alps, but they offer a perfect winter escape for families and skiers looking for a winter break with a difference. There are more than 100 ski resorts dotted about the country, from small and local resorts consisting of a few lifts to larger resorts offering everything from snow parks for kids, to black runs and powder for the more experienced. Winter in Sweden isn’t just all ski-focused either. They’re also keen on their winter fishing, snowmobiling and cross-country. The food is great too.
