WHAT TO WEAR IN FINNMARK NORWEGIAN LAPLAND

Thanks to the Gulf Stream, the harbours along the coast of Finnmark Norwegian Lapland do not freeze over and the area enjoys mostly mild winters.

There is a lot of snowfall in the winter, but many parts of this region are surrounded by mountains which provide shelter from the winds and cold from the sea. In the inland areas, near the Finnish border, it can get extremely cold in the winter, while the summers are warm and dry.

The weather and temperatures can change quickly throughout the entire region. Bring good footwear and warm clothes. If you take part in any winter activities, warm clothing and footwear will be included in the price you pay.


WHAT TO WEAR IN WINTER IN FINNMARK NORWEGIAN LAPLAND
In order for your stay in Finnmark to be as comfortable as possible, it is important to have the right clothes. Bring warm and comfortable clothes and shoes. We recommend wearing 100% wool or similar quality clothing next to your skin. Layer your clothing, so that you can easily regulate your temperature by removing or adding a layer. Outer clothing should be lined and windproof. Most activity organisers supply clothing for excursions, i.e. thermal suits, shoes, hat and mittens.
