Sweden is the largest Nordic country in terms of area.
When the first snow kisses the 450,295 square kilometers of land, when every frost covers 64% of the country's forests, when every aurora borealis stretches 3,000 kilometers in the night sky, Sweden, once again, becomes the protagonist of the wonderland world.
This is the brightest, clearest diamond buried on the surface of the earth in winter!
When the first snow fell in Sweden, 290 towns across the country were transformed into a wonderland overnight.
Sweden has a large temperature difference between the north and the south.
The northern part of the country has a continental climate, with long winters and snow that lasts for half the year.
However, due to the influence of the North Atlantic warm current, the winter temperature is not very low, very suitable for outdoor snow sports.
The southern part of the country has an oceanic climate, with short winters and long summers, and only one month of snow.
Swedes love sports and enjoy them in winter. In winter, the entire population of Sweden enjoys a week-long sports holiday.
Families of all ages go out skiing and other outdoor sports.
If there is one place that captures the charm of Swedish winter to the fullest, it has to be the northern Swedish province of Jämtland.
Due to its sparseness and location at a high latitude of 63°N, Jämtland is blessed with breathtaking natural scenery.
Examples include high mountains, deep forests, and numerous lakes, including Lake Stur, the fifth-largest lake in Sweden.
The unspoiled natural environment provides the perfect habitat for moose, reindeer, bears, arctic foxes, and rare birds.
Jämtland is not only beautiful but it is also known as a skiing and outdoor sports destination in Sweden.
Many people come here to experience the cultural traditions and organic ingredients.
The cities of Åre and Stersund are two of the jewels of the region, attracting travelers.
Åre is the largest and most advanced alpine ski resort in the Nordics. It stands out from the 200 ski resorts throughout Sweden and has a reputation as a winter resort.
It has also hosted the Alpine Skiing World Championships.
In winter you have the opportunity to catch the mysterious and unpredictable aurora borealis here.
There are amazing runs and difficult cross-country slopes, as well as many easy runs for children and beginners.
With a combination of skiing and other outdoor activities, there is something for everyone.
And there is also very fresh air here. Since the 19th century, the city of Åre has been a resort for people suffering from lung diseases.
Åre attracts many snow sports enthusiasts from Sweden and abroad.
With alpine skiing and cross-country skiing activities of varying difficulty, it is a paradise for outdoor sports enthusiasts.
Visitors of all ages will find something for them.
Try putting on your snow boots and embarking on a snowshoe hike in a snowy world, or take on the challenge of ice climbing and ski hiking.
The most exciting thing is to ride a snowmobile. You can make snowflakes dance in the air as you roll up thick snow with your wheels under the roar of a motorcycle.
At the same time take in the stunning scenery of Åre and feel the exhilaration of life.
The winter song is playing again, so come and experience the best of Swedish winter!
