We calculated how much a skiing holiday in Levi costs for a family of four: it can easily cost tons

To keep costs down, you can cook your own meals or share the cost of accommodation with a larger group.

Families pay thousands of euros for a winter holiday at a ski resort. People want to spend money on being out and about, even though the general rise in prices is reflected in the overall cost.

Lempiäinen came to the fells with his family and a group of friends. He estimates the price tag for a week’s winter holiday at around €2 500. The savings came from renting the cabin with a large group.

Costs are also kept under control by cooking your own food at the cottage.

Family holidays easily cost thousands of euros

We put together the costs that an imaginary family could lead to a winter holiday trip to Levi.

Calculating the cost of family travel, accommodation, entertainment and eating, the cost of the winter holiday week will be well over € 4,000.

\”Money always matters a little how much it is, but you shouldn’t think too much,\” says Pentikäinen.

The evening meals they eat mainly at the cottage and lunch at skiing days at the slope restaurants. Wednesday’s strike is not worried.

– Don’t worry. Then we go to the restaurant, Nurmela says.

Moderate increase in cottage prices

Weeks 8 and 9 are the most sought after and there are hardly any free items on the holiday ring. Week 10 has been on the scene of a little more moderately sold.

Although prices have been rising, cottage owners cannot overpriced to prevent demand.

– I have been following the pricing of the cottages and talked to the owners. Pretty moderate prices have been rising, no bold increases are visible, Säkkinen describes.

Säkkinen says that even though there is a lot of talk about the challenges of the economic situation, winter holidays seem to be a time when families want to invest in a shared time and spend a holiday in the north.
