Spring Escapes · Sweden
Birch forest greening, lake ice breaking up, first warm days in Värmland. A guide to the best nature stays in Sweden during March–May.
Birch forest greening, lake ice breaking up, first warm days in Värmland. Spring is Scandinavia's overlooked season. It arrives later than in southern Europe — in northern Norway, winter can persist until May — but when it comes, it does so with a speed and intensity that is genuinely striking. The birch forests go from bare grey to luminous green in the space of days. Rivers run fast and loud with snowmelt.
A spring escapes stay in Sweden offers the full range of Nordic nature accommodation — forest cabins, treehouse hotels, wilderness lodges, glamping, and nature retreats — each transformed by the particular quality of the swedish landscape in this season.
