Trondheim has many attractions that can be enjoyed at various times of the year, depending on your preference. The warmest time to visit would be over the summer months of June – August, when the temperatures peak at a pleasant 19 °C. During this time you can enjoy some sightseeing and the greenery of the city, such as at the Pilgrimsleden Nature Park. As it is peak tourist season though, you will most probably have to pay for more expensive flights and accommodation. Winter is a great time to visit as it gives you access to adrenaline pumping winter sports such as skiing and snowboarding. Spend a day or two on the snowy slopes at Skistua Aftersi.
