From early March to late April, Lapland awakens into its early spring season, a time when the landscape is bathed in light yet still blanketed in snow. The long polar nights have passed, but in early March the evenings remain dark enough to offer wonderful chances of seeing the Northern Lights. As the days grow steadily longer, a harmonious balance emerges: crisp, starlit nights give way to bright, energising days filled with sunshine.

The sun climbs higher in the sky, illuminating the fells and forests so that the snowy landscapes glow in dazzling white. The effect is almost magical, as the Arctic takes on a softer, golden light that transforms the wilderness into something dreamlike. These sunny and cheerful months provide abundant snow for outdoor activities, while milder temperatures make time outside especially enjoyable.

Snowshoeing, cross-country skiing and downhill skiing all reach their peak in spring, with ideal conditions for both seasoned adventurers and those wishing to try something new. It is the perfect time to explore Lapland’s pristine wilderness, soak in the warmth of the returning sun and experience the Arctic at its most invigorating.
