About the winter sports break

Why do municipalities have different weeks?

The sports break was introduced so that children would get out into the winter and be active. If the whole country were off in the same week, mountain cabins, trains and roads to the north would be full. So the break is spread between week 7 and week 10. Southern municipalities often go early, the Stockholm area has week 9 and northern Sweden often week 10.

How long is the break?

The sports break is one week, Monday to Friday, plus the weekends on either side. Some schools add a study day next to it, which makes the time off one day longer.

Before you book a trip

Cabins and trains to the mountains in the popular weeks are often booked six months ahead. Check your municipality's week in the list below before booking. Independent schools may have a week of their own.
