Plenty of things to do during winter: This is a magical time in the fjords, which can be combined with exciting activities, both outdoors and indoors. It’s important to make the most of the few hours of daylight before you pop past an exciting art exhibition, an evening concert or curl up in front of a roaring fire.

Crystalized pine trees, frozen lakes, blankets of powder snow, open fireplaces and hearty meals. The winter season is not surprisingly known as the time of “hygge” or “coziness”. Our mountain plateaus, forests and hillsides are perfect for family winter activities such as cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, alpine skiing and sledging. Despite a limited number of daylight hours, the little light we have left seems determined to make up for the dark hours. Spectacular sunrises and sunsets, a magical blue hour, and moonlight illuminating snow-clad landscapes that tricks you into believing you are actually on the moon itself. The season for snowfall runs December-April, give or take a month at the beginning and end.
