The Weather in Helsinki

The rest of the year is very cold, often with temperatures well below freezing. It regularly snows in Helsinki during winter.

Helsinki in Winter

Helsinki is a beautiful, frozen paradise and most visitors find that they actually prefer the city in winter. It is very cold and snowy and provides a festive atmosphere. The city and nearby Esplanadi Park is lit up with beautiful Christmas lights that add a magical feeling, and you can enjoy delicious hot chocolates and mulled wines while you explore. If you’re feeling sporty why not try some skiing, or you can indulge in one of the city’s favourite winter pastimes – a hot sauna!
