Sweden

Nordic light dances over lakes, June to August warms the Scandinavian soul

The best time to visit Sweden is between June and August, when midnight sun lights up Stockholm’s archipelago and Lapland’s wilds. With 15°C to 25°C days, it’s great for kayaking Dalsland, exploring Gamla Stan, or hiking Abisko. For quieter trips, try May or September.
