Sweden: Experiences of our Visitors
Fantastic, only one day at Lake Vänern was overcast, therefore note 2, otherwise wonderful weather in the Stockholm archipelago and in Gothenburg!
Weather Rating: 4 stars – Good
The weather was very good and fortunately very low precipitation. I was there with my family for about 9 days. We had only two days near the (small) town Torsby when it rained and otherwise only best weather with a lot of sunshine.
Weather Rating: 5 stars – Excellent
