And the country’s vast mountainous areas provide another adventure altogether, perfect for lovers of the great outdoors. Summer months reveal glittering lakes, verdant countryside and lively cafe culture, while winter brings dependable snowfall, chocolate box scenery and the Northern lights. It’s well worth taking the time to road trip several parts of this enormous country – the second largest in the world.
