Vast expanses of unspoiled beauty set Sweden apart from other European destinations.
More than half of the country is covered by forests, and another 40,000 kilometers
are devoted to lakes and waterways.
Much of Sweden's more scenic sights can be experienced touring the Swedish Lapland.
Discover "Europe's last wilderness" on a snowmobile, cross country skis or a dog-sledging
expedition, where some tours hop from hut to hut covering as many as 50 kilometers
per day.
When you're ready to return to civilization, Stockholm offers everything you'd want
in a dynamic capital city, including shimmering waterways, world-class museums, haute
cuisine, and heart-thumping nightlife. Other popular Sweden attractions include the
ultimate ski destination Are, and Visby, a walled medieval city that was once a Viking
stronghold. (Now the island destination is a family holiday spot marked by sandy beaches,
festivals and sea-lined golf courses.)
Wherever you choose to visit, your Sweden holiday will be all the more memorable when
you stay at one of the many apartments4you resorts spread out across the landscape.
Many apartments4you resorts offer conveniences such as kitchens, drying cabinets and
private saunas.
