Eight seasons
According to an old Lappish and Sami tradition, people experience eight seasons in Levi. The First Snow: Nature has slowed down, and the first snow and ice cover the rivers, lakes, marshlands and forests. It is time to take out the skis again, to go snowshoeing and to search for the Northern Lights. Polar Nights: The sun does not rise above the horizon and the nights are long, but during the few hours of daylight the skies are coloured in spectacular pastel colours. The Real Winter: The sub-zero winter season is the best time to enjoy the frosty landscapes and all winter activities that come to mind, followed by a sauna and ice swimming in the frozen lake. The Crusted Snow: The first rays of sun inspire you to spend time outdoors and enjoy skiing, fat-biking, snowshoeing, horse riding or just being in nature on crispy crystal-clear snow. The Springtime: Nature prepares for summer and the snow and ice slowly melt away leaving room for the first stalks of grass to resurface. The Midnight Sun: Between June and July the sun never sets and shines around the clock for 45 days. This is a great time for outdoor activities such as hiking, biking, canoeing, riding and golfing late into the bright night. The Harvest time: The summer days get shorter and the evening darker; it is the time to pick superfoods like berries and many other delicacies straight from the pure nature. The Autumn: Forests, valleys and fells are painted in autumn’s vibrant reds and oranges. It is a great time to go for walks in the forest and to pick berries and mushrooms. It’s also the start of the Northern Lights season.

Outdoor activities in Levi
Winter activities in Levi are very versatile: cross-country skiing, downhill skiing, ski-touring, snowshoeing, dog sledding, horse riding, you name it – there is plenty to experience so far north in the Finnish Lapland. Levi has been the venue of the Alpine Ski World Cup since 2004 and the well-praised final race of the Visma Ski Classics since 2017. A network of 230 km of cross-country ski tracks maintained daily gives you great opportunities to explore the nature on skis. And if skiing is not your thing, go and venture along the about 20 km of marked winter hiking, snowshoeing or biking trails over a frozen lake, in the forests and to the top of the Kätkä fell.
If winter makes Levi an arctic wonderland, summer and autumn turn Levi into a colourful tray of possibilities. Bathing in the glow of the midnight sun you can set off along great hikes or hop onto a bike and cycle around Levi, Kätkä and Pyhä fells. The stunning surroundings, be it around or on top of Levi fell, in the Pallas-Yllästunturi National Park or in the unspoilt nature a short way from the centre, offer a variation of beautiful paths to be explored. Experts and novice mountain bikers alike love Levi’s DH Bike Park, with Finland's fastest downhill track as well as the great MTB-enduro trails in Levi and Kätkä fells. Golfers can enjoy playing under the midnight sun in the 18-hole Golf Course – just don’t be disturbed by the reindeer resting on the course. Water experiences are also a must: You can go canoeing on the lakes or rivers, stand-up paddle board under the midnight sun or join a cruise and relax on a pontoon boat with a sauna.
