skiing in lapland

hope somebody can help? we are looking at going to Levi in finland and was wondering if you could give me some info on how good the area is for all abilities? I wanted to go back to italy but am being out numbered

My friend was there for a season, she says there's some great XC but the downhill is very easy and small areas, great for families for an alternative winter experience or for very beginners but intermediates up should be prepared to keep skiing the same areas!

I went to Levi a few years ago and its a great little place but very much dependent on ability. If you want a tranquil chilled ski holiday and you maybe want to try out dog sledding or snowmobiling or any other activities then go to Levi. The ski area is quite small and limited, I would say it is ideal for beginners and intermediates who are still looking to improve but if you have been skiing for many years then the ski area probably won't satisfy you.

Simmy, best place to ski in that area is Yllas, only a few miles from Levi but great skiing, restaurants aren't as good as levi, doesn't have the crazy reindeer hotel but much better skiing
