Beyond Winter: Summer Tourism Rising Among Indians

Indians are slowly discovering that Nordic summers are equally magical. Between June and August, these countries offer:

  • Pleasant cool weather
  • Green forests
  • Flowery meadows
  • Crystal-clear lakes
  • Long sunny days

The Midnight Sun Phenomenon

From late May to July, parts of Lapland experience the Midnight Sun, where the sun does not set for weeks. Indians find this fascinating because it’s completely opposite to the tropical environment back home.

Indians are embracing:

  • Canoeing and kayaking
  • Hiking through national parks
  • Cycling trails
  • Freshwater swimming
  • Berry picking and foraging
  • Wildlife safaris (bears, moose, arctic foxes)
