While many people picture Lapland as a world of snow and Northern Lights, summer is truly the Arctic’s best-kept secret. As the landscape awakens, the forest explodes with life, 24 hours of daylight under the Midnight Sun, pleasant temperatures, blooming tundra, and crystal-clear lakes perfect for a refreshing swim after a day of hiking. It is a season of endless energy, stillness, and pure freedom.

Are there huskies and reindeer in Lapland during the summer?
Yes! Reindeer roam freely throughout the countryside during summer (you will often see them along roadsides). And some places where you can visit reindeers and moose stay open for visits, for example Cape wild.
Our husky kennel is also open for visits, puppy playtime, and summer hike instead of sleds.

Is it worth visiting Swedish Lapland in summer?
Absolutley! If you enjoy nature and outdoor activities, you can visit Lapland (Piteå) in every season and it will be worth it. During the summer all nature is green, berries will start to grow and we are treated by the midnight sun. That means that the sun will not set or only for a short while, this make the days very long and unique.
Besides the hughes amount of hiking trails, Piteå also offer a lot of different areas to swim. Also the huskies are still around in the summer and are waiting for you to bring some cuddles.

What is the best time to visit Swedish Lapland for summer break?
It depends entirely on what you want to experience! A summer break in Swedish Lapland is the ultimate “coolcation”. The perfect choice if you want to escape the extreme heatwaves of southern Europe and instead enjoy comfortable temperatures, fresh Arctic air, and endless daylight.
Here is a breakdown of our summer months to help you choose the perfect time for your trip:
- June (The Midnight Sun & Midsummer): June is a truly magical month. This is when you can experience the famous Midnight Sun at its absolute peak, giving you 24 hours of daylight to explore. It is also the month of Midsummer, where you can join locals in celebrating one of Sweden’s oldest and most beloved traditions under a sun that never sets.
- July & August (Warm Days & Berry Picking): These are typically our warmest months, making them ideal for outdoor adventures. Around Piteå, this is the perfect time to discover our beautiful hiking trails, hidden swimming spots, and the stunning archipelago. Plus, from mid-July onward, the forest floor opens up foraging season, allowing you to pick delicious wild cloudberries, blueberries, and raspberries.
Local Tip: If you want maximum daylight and local cultural festivals, choose June. If you prefer warmer weather for swimming and foraging for wild berries, July and August are your best bet!
