The best time to visit Sweden depends on what you want from your trip. For Sweden holidays, October to March is perfect for Northern Lights tours and magical stays at the ICEHOTEL. If you’d rather see Sweden’s brighter side, June to August brings the Midnight Sun, mild weather and endless days for hiking and island hopping. For a balance of snow and milder days, consider late March or early April, ideal for catching the Aurora with clearer skies.
If spotting the Northern Lights is top of your list, the best time for your Sweden holiday is during the cooler months, from autumn through spring. During these months, you can expect average temperatures between -6°C and -20°C, sometimes dipping even lower overnight.
As spring arrives, daylight stretches longer and temperatures rise a little, you’ll see ranges from -10°C to 10°C in rural Sweden and around 5°C to 16°C in Stockholm. If you’re planning a romantic break to see the Arctic Midnight Sun, summer is ideal too, with long, light days and temperatures climbing up to 20°C to 23°C for a fresh, unforgettable Sweden adventure holiday.
