Explore Scandinavia with your family
While trips to Finland during winter continue to be popular, more families are heading to Norway and Iceland in summer to participate in activities such as hiking, cycling and rafting. 50 Degrees North Nordic manager Satu Vänskä-Westgarth says both destinations offered a variety of activities for different family members.
“While the kids might enjoy rafting, adults can visit an open-air museum or a local historic cider farm,” she says. “This, coupled with stunning scenery and short driving distances, have made them increasingly popular destinations for family travel.”
