The climate of Lillehammer (Norway)
Lillehammer is located in the southeastern part of Norway on Lake
Mjøsa. The city is known for being the host of the 1994 Olympic winter
games. The skiing facilities, bobsleigh tracks and ski jumps are still
available. Several well signed and beautiful footpaths can be enjoyed
here. You can also rent a bike. Besides indulging in sports activities
you may also decide to visit the largest open air museum which can be
found here. During the winter Lillehammer is covered in a thick
blanket of snow. Because of high precipitation figures snow is almost
always guaranteed during the winter. Lillehammer has a mild climate
strongly influenced by the sea. The influence of the sea has a
moderating effect on temperatures both during summer and winter.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
