Winter multi activity vacations
Where to go
Winter multi activity vacations tend to take place around northern Scandinavia, including Lapland, and the French and Austrian Alps – with a couple of spots in the Carpathians, Chile, Canada and the United States too. Lower latitudes offer more hours of daylight in midwinter, but you’ll miss out on the Northern Lights. The far north of Europe – the traditional home of Father Christmas – is better for husky sledding, encountering reindeers and meeting the Sami people – an unforgettable part of any Lapland winter vacation.The High Tatras in Slovakia, part of the Carpathian Mountains, are an excellent spot for an alternative winter break, as are the mountains of Bjelasica and Durmitor in Montenegro. Or, you could really go for broke and head to Chile for a hardcore mix of climbing and downhill skiing – in the southern hemisphere winter of mid-June to September, of course.

Winter activities

Northern Lights
The Northern Lights are a big pull for winter adventurers, and countries which lie between the Aurora zone of 65 to 72 degrees latitudes are the best places to see this nightly display. Head to Norway, Swedish and Finnish Lapland, Iceland or Alaska from late November to March, where many winter activity vacation operators have built Northern Lights experiences into their itineraries. If you’re staying in a remote wilderness lodge or a simple hut, then you may only have to walk a few steps view the lights; if you’re in town you might be spirited away to the wilds via sled or snowmobile for the best chances of a viewing.Husky sledding
Since the Aurora Borealis are a nighttime phenomena, they leave plenty of time for daytime activities, and you’ll find plenty to choose from. Husky sledding, for example, puts in a frequent appearance on winter multi activity vacations based in the far north of Europe, and options range from shorter, family friendly affairs to full-on overnight husky safaris complete with a stay in a wilderness cabin.
Meeting the Sámi people
Most winter multi activity itineraries in Lapland will give you the chance spend time with the Sámi people, the original inhabitants of Lapland, who will welcome you to join in their daily lives and share stories of their sustainable, ancient lifestyle. Responsible tour operators will ensure that these experiences are genuine rather than a ‘show’ put on especially for tourists.Cross country skiing & snowshoeing
If you have always resisted snow vacations because you’re not into downhill skiing or snowboarding, then multi activity winter vacations can introduce you to a quieter alternative – cross country skiing or snowshoeing. There are superb cross country skiing trails in the Austrian Alps, Canada and Scandinavia, while Central Europe’s Carpathian Mountains offer top notch snowshoeing.Our top Multi activity Vacation
