With beautiful blue skies, longer days, warmer weather, and excellent guaranteed snow conditions, Easter skiing in Scandinavia is already a favourite among those "in the know." Whether you’re squeezing in one last ski trip or searching for a unique spring skiing holiday, here’s why April in Norway and Sweden should be on your radar.
Forget the old myth that skiing ends in March. In Scandinavia, April brings consistent snowfall and top-tier conditions. Over the past 17 years, Scandinavian ski resorts have recorded 2.5 snow days per week, with 7-12 cm of fresh snow falling regularly throughout April.
In fact, April ski conditions in Norway and Sweden often rival the Alps during peak season - but without the crowds!
Spring skiing here doesn’t mean slushy slopes. Thanks to overnight sub-zero temperatures, the pistes stay soft and velvety all day long. Enjoy milder daytime temperatures and bluebird skies - ditch the thermals for sun cream, and ski comfortably under a clear blue skies!
By the end of March, Scandinavia enjoys over 12 hours of daylight, giving you more time to ski and explore. From the ultimate snowmobile experience to the thrill of husky sledding, a magical horse sleigh ride to snowshoeing under the stars - we have something for everyone!
Scandinavia is known for its quiet slopes and near-empty lift queues, and it’s even more tranquil over Easter. Families and beginner skiers especially appreciate the extra space to learn, build confidence, and enjoy the mountain at their own pace - without the usual Easter rush found elsewhere in Europe.
If you're planning a ski holiday in April, Scandinavia offers one of the best late-season experiences in Europe: snow reliability, sunshine, space, and culture all wrapped into one unforgettable trip.
