Winter Twinkling stars, skiing or sledging in the snow, the swirling Northern Lights, knitted jumpers, warming up with a hot mug of coffee, and open fires. Welcome to winter in Norway. Winter weather patterns As the trees finish shedding their leaves in late October and the days become shorter, winter begins in Norway. This beautiful season is usually divided into two periods: dark winter and light winter. Locals consider October to December to be dark winter, atime of increased rainfall and fading light, with some northern parts of the country experiencing less than five hours of sunlight daily. Light winter arrives after the winter solstice around 21st December, when the days start lengtheningand when most of Norway is transformed by a layer of snow. During this time, you can experience the romantic “blue hour’, when the light of the afternoon twilight reflects off the sea and the snow, bathing the landscape in a beautiful blue hue. Many Norwegians spend the winters taking to the ski slopes and hibernating in mountain cabins. Helgeland / The Seven Sisters Making the most of kos “Kos” is a Norwegian word that loosely translates to “cosiness” but also embodies a sense of homeliness, warmth, and wellbe- ing. Everyone has their own definition, but the gentle flicker of candlelight paired with the crackling ofa fire and the warmth of a woollen jumper all evoke the concept of kos. You'll have plenty of opportunity to capture asense of Norwegian kosin many places on your voyage with us. Norway's literal highlights Parts of northern Norway experience Polar Night, a period ofa couple of months when the sun doesn't rise above the horizon. The resulting darkness forms the perfect backdrop for one the Seven Wonders of the Natural World to make an appearance: the aurora. Shafts and ribbons of light dance across the winter sky, sometimes painting the night in dramatic colours of green, purple, and even flashes of yellow. Nothing compares to watching this natural light show with your owneyes.
