How will you spend your time in Värmland? Where will you eat, learn more about our culture, challenge the adventurer inside yourself, or just shop and relax? We offer an abundance of choices, and we’d be happy to guide you through the wilderness and find what suits your personal preferences.
Our province’s diversity is best exemplified by the vast contrast between winter and summer. A bright summer’s day can surpass 30°C in the shade, whilst you’d better gear up for -20°C just six months later. That’s part of what make life so exciting here in Värmland: seeing the seasons truly change, offering their own, unique outlets for everyone from hunters, fishers and alpine skiers, to lovers of gourmet food, spa treatments and long days on the beach.
