Best time to Visit
With mild summers and cold winters, Uppsala can be visited throughout the year depending on what you're looking for. Spring is the time when the city bursts into life but there can be high levels of pollen so if you suffer from hay fever make sure to take your medicine. The summer months start in May and the maximum temperature rarely goes over 30°C in June, July, and August. Winter months are between late November and late March when the average temperatures are between -2°C and -4°C. Uppsala is a delightful place to visit during this period and there are plenty of winter activities to choose from like skiing, skating, or jig-fishing. During Christmas time (November and December) there are Christmas markets, Christmas buffets and celebrations of Sankta Lucia to enjoy.
