Best Time to Visit Scandinavia
The best time for hiking in Scandinavia depends on your style of travel.
June to August: Long daylight hours, ideal for hiking, photography, and scenic drives.
May & September: Quieter trails, cooler air, and stunning fall colors.
October to March: The best time to see the Northern Lights, especially in Northern Norway.
If spotting the Aurora Borealis is on your list, aim for clear, dark nights between September and March - away from city lights for the best chance.
