A lakeside hut in the snow? This touch of Scandinavia can be found around lake #Arnisee in @ferienregionuri! It’s the perfect romantic winter setting, as this photo by @noberson shows. It’s a peaceful, idyllic place that great for a bit of exercise. There are snowshoe trails around the lake, and you can rent equipment nearby. Looking for something a little more active? No problem! From lake Arnisee, you can set out on a range of ski tours. Getting there is easy: From Amsteg, ride on a small gondola cable car. Once you reach the upper station, it’s a short walk to the lake.

Indulge in some warm miso soup throughout the months of December through to February in the one and only Japan. Other than the picturesque winter wonderland, the most popular attraction during winter, the Winter Illumination, will be lit up and held across the country.
