A brief overview
Situated 170km north of the Arctic circle, Levi is Finland's most
famous resort, hosting many a World Cup ski event and competition. The resort
attracts visitors from all corners of the globe, seeking extraordinary
experiences that only Lapland can offer. Wrapped up snug in the back of a husky
sled, racing along frozen expanses by snowmobile or floating high above the
untouched hilly scenery in a hot air balloon - you'll experience activities
here you simply won't find elsewhere. No surprise then that, for most people,
skiing is definitely not the only thing on the holiday agenda. Like the magical
midwinter skies, the village centre offers a unique charm, its streets lined
with no less than 30 attractively lit restaurants and many an entrance way
adorned with beautiful ice sculptures. Combine all this with a snowsure
climate, pleasantly crowd-free slopes and stunning arctic scenery, and you can
see why most visitors leave promising themselves they'll be back for more
before too long.
