Stockholm
Travel tips
When to go
Thanks to the Atlantic gulf stream the winters in Stockholm are surprisingly mild and the only months when you can be reasonably sure about snow on the ground are January through to March. Temperatures range from 12 degrees Celsius in September to minus three degrees in January, so wrap up warm. The air is crisp and refreshing.
