Laplands specialty, eight different seasons, includes wonderful and months unlike the others. Each month is completely different from its predecessor and before you know it, you have a new favorite season in Lapland!

January
In January, you can often experience a gorgeous pink sky, which makes your ski experience extra magical. The darkest time of the year, kaamos, ends in Levi right on the first of January, which means that the days are still short, but there is more and more daylight every week.

By January, the snow has usually already accumulated properly, so you can fully enjoy downhill skiing and cross-country skiing  or put on your snowshoes and head out to explore the winter environment. In January you often experience the harshest frosts of winter.

February
In February, the snow banks are high as the sun begins to show up more and more. This also means that unlit natural snow slopes will also be opened at the Levi Ski Resort. The sun rays dance in the soft powder snow and tanning lines of the ski goggles start to appear on your face.

March
Towards the end of March, Lapland's heart winter, which is one of the eight seasons of Lapland, comes to an end. As the actual winter turns into an early springwinter, the increasing amount of light and a shimmering snow blanket on the ground create a magical atmosphere from which you should take advantage of, especially when the snow is hard enough to walk on without sinking.

In March, you should rent an electric bike and head to Levi's winter cycling trails. The best way of enjoying sunny springwinter days is from your saddle in the middle of the calm and quiet Lappish forest.

April
In April, the weather begins to warm up and nature wakes up from its hibernation. Slopes and trails are still open. The sunny winter weather is at its best with shimmering snow blanket, which screams for outdoor activities in pure nature.

At this time of year, we recommend trying mountain skiing, for example on nearby fells or in the national park area. What a great way to break free from everyday life! You can get mountain skis from our rental shop. The ice-breaking spring also begins in April.

May
In May, we move from winter to summer, during which you have a unique opportunity to see Lapland's nature awaken and preparing for the blooming of the upcoming summer.

Our professional ski service at Zero Point (Front Slopes) and South Point (South Slopes) service both skis and snowboards. By the end of May, the nights are almost nightless already. In Lapland, spring does not develop at the same pace as in the South, as there may still be shimmering and large snowfalls in May.

Fall starts in September and its full-bodied colors offer a breathtaking experience, flaming colors both in the trees and on the ground. Autumn is a great time for hiking in the fell, where blueberries, lingonberries and other wild berries create the most beautiful autumn scenery. Levi’s varied trails and nearby routes introduce you to many interesting places.

For example, Huippupolku, which is less than a kilometer long, goes around the top of Levi fell and reveals the magnificent mountain scenery. Admire the stunning colors and scenery of autumn - breathing in the refreshing nordic air. Approximately 9 km long Ice Age Trail,  winds around the wooden border of Levitunturi, interestingly revealing the area's past from millions of years ago.

October
When autumn ends, the first snow period begins and the first snow of the year obtains Levi during October-November. During daytime, the sun still warms outdoor enthusiasts, and in October you can enjoy both winter and summer sports at the same time.

At the beginning of October, the ski season on the Front Slopes and the first snow cross-country skiing track will be opened thanks to the storage snow. It is a good idea to start the skiing season through equipment maintenance so that the equipments are in mint condition for the new season. Zero Points ski service is open for customers in October. Summer sports such as mountain biking and hiking can still be practiced on the trails and in the fell, so you can combine both winter and summer sports in one day!

November
Within the first snow, the world illuminates when the first decent layer of snow arrives. In Lapland, winter lasts about 7 months. In November, Levi's winter activities are already on the move. At the beginning of a downhill or cross-country season, it is good to sharpen your own skills and register for a ski school.

Ski school is not just for beginners, as the “veterans” also get valuable information under the guidance of professional teachers about what could be fixed in their technique. This makes downhill skiing and cross-country skiing easier, safer, and more interesting and ensures that you’re in sharp shape right at the start of the season.
