Winter
The province of Värmland where Uddeholm is situated has real winters, most of the time with snow and ice from December to April. Although this region is not absolutely sure of snow because of the low mountains, the lake is covered with thick layer of ice every winter.
The village of Ekshärad, just 20 minutes north of the hotel, has a small ski slope. In an hour drive from Uddeholm you will find the beautiful ski areas Hovfjället (Torsby), Säfsen (Fredriksberg) and Ski Sunne. Värmlands famous ski resort Branäs, near Sysslebäck is appr. 1.5 hours drive away. In Uddeholm and surroundings are some prepared (illuminated) cross country tracks. Cross-country ski equipment can be rented at the hotel, or is part of your holiday package.
Spring - autumn
In this time you can enjoy the intense change of seasons. In spring the nature comes to life within a few days: all plants are flowering and trees are in full leaf.
The autumn colors birches and maples in gold and red. There are mushrooms and berries everywhere and because of the "Every Mans Right" you are allowed to pick as many as you want.
