Snow levels, Lifts and Pistes.

Finland and in particular Finnish Lapland is enjoying what used to be typical winter conditions after a couple of years of slightly milder weather. Frequent snowfall ensures that the already healthy snow levels continue to be topped up.

This is the perfect time to be in Lapland and Northern Finland, spring has arrived. That is not the spring as those further south in Europe envisage it, bulbs flowering and the greenery emerging, but the Arctic version of long, long sunny days, crystal clear blue skies and perfect winter sport conditions.
