Traveller notes on Levi in May

Other months in Levi

Levi's forum calls March a genuine step up from midwinter — more bright sunshine, longer days, and noticeably warmer than December or February, with regulars reporting swings from around -11°C on a cold day up to +8°C on a mild one. Daylight grows fast too, from around 10 hours early in the month to over 12 by the end, and while the first week overlaps with Lapland school holidays, regulars say Finnish resorts never get uncomfortably crowded.
