Hotels in Lapland, Sweden
Lapland stretches across northern Finland, above the Arctic Circle, with a subarctic climate that brings snowy winters averaging 14°F (-10°C) and mild summers around 59°F (15°C). It's famous for the Northern Lights, which you can chase from September to March on a husky sled ride through pine forests, and for being the official home of Santa Claus in Rovaniemi. In summer, the Midnight Sun lets you hike through Urho Kekkonen National Park at 2 a.m., while winter offers snowmobile trips across frozen lakes like Lake Inari.
