In recent winters, it's becoming a common occurrence to see Alpine resorts facing unpredictable weather and inconsistent snowfall. Meanwhile, Scandinavia has quietly emerged as the go-to destination for the discerning ‘in the know’ skier looking for a long, guaranteed season from mid-November until the end of April. Thanks to reliable sub-zero temperatures, cutting-edge snowmaking technology, and generous natural snowfall, the ski season here typically offers one of the longest and most consistent ski seasons in Europe.
Resorts across the renowned ‘Five Peaks’ region - including popular destinations like Sälen and Trysil - have already seen excellent snow conditions, with slopes opening as early as 17th November. These high standards are no coincidence. Scandinavia’s combination of stable winter weather and heavy investment in infrastructure means visitors can confidently book early or late-season trips without compromising on snow quality.
Getting to this stunning winter playground is easier than ever. Direct flights with skiScandinavia from London Gatwick to Scandinavian Mountains Airport mean you're just a couple of hours away from fresh powder and peaceful pistes. With airport-to-resort transfers as short as 10 to 40 minutes, you can go from runway to slope in record time - no lengthy journeys, no hassle, just an unforgettable winter escape.
