Traveling to Sweden is always beautiful no matter the season. Summer is gorgeous and not that hot, winter is very cold but it is loved by the whole sky crowd. But my favorite time to travel to Sweden is definitely fall. The months of September and October are the most beautiful months to be in Swedish nature.

There are thousands of great things to
do in Sweden over the entire year and most of them are perfect to do in
the beautiful fall. The whole outdoors scene is very popular due to the
fact the landscapes are amazing and the weather also. The amazing snow
capped mountain peaks, walking next to rein-deers in the deep forests,
visiting beaches, lakes, historic sites and outdoors sports.
