When to go to Sweden?

The Gulf Stream provides Sweden with a temperate climate. Summer is quite short with very long day length, especially in June when night barely falls. Average temperatures are around 20°C and the sky is persistently bright. If you have the option, choose June for your next trip to Sweden .
Winters are tough and long, the snow and darkness pervasive. The average temperature is close to 0°C or below. If you like skiing, there are many resorts in Sweden. And why not take in the aurora borealis in the polar region?
The ideal time to visit Sweden is summer, particularly between May and the end of July. For those who want to discover the beauty of its nature in winter and practice skiing, snowshoeing or sledding, plan a stay in the north of the country between mid-December and the end of February and you may get the chance to see the aurora borealis too.
