Kiruna, Sweden

Winter wonderlands There’s no doubt that a winter holiday takes your sense of wellbeing to a whole new altitude. There’s something about that crisp, cold air on your skin, the freedom of venturing out onto a pristine white canvass, enjoying breathtaking views across mountain peaks and inhaling a calmness and serenity that’s far from the hustle and bustle of city life. Not to mention those cosy bistros that welcome you warmly inside to share in hearty winter fare. Some may be surprised at the idea of skiing in the Middle East, but with snowfields just an hour from the city, the lively and hospitable Beirut makes for the perfect winter break. The scope for Alpine holiday activities is unsurpassed in Switzerland, with a string of world class ski resorts set amongst the most dramatic mountainous scenery, from Zermatt to St. Moritz. Winter brings a unique adventure to Northern Sweden, where you can experience the awe-inspiring Northern Lights Aurora Borealis , ride on a traditional dog sled, and spend starry nights at the world famous ICEHOTEL. Austria is chockful of romantic chocolate box appeal as soon as it puts on its white winter coat. Lakes turn to ice rinks, mountainsides to ski slopes, and a nation prepares to dance on snow and ice. Winter spirit comes alive at central Europe’s festive markets. Expect local crafts, warming hot chocolate, and gallons of festive cheer. The perfect excuse for that short break to Munich, Vienna, Brussels or Prague.
