Frozen: 8 Super Cool Winter Villages Around the World

Much like Santa and his elves, winter villages are tough to find. For all of us who are craving snow but can’t get to it (yet) here are 7 super cool winter villages Elsa would approve of.

#1 Reine, Norway

If you told us Santa was real here, we'd believe you.

Reine is actually a fishing village, but during winter, it looks like it could be a lot more, doesn’t it?

#2 St Christoph, Austria

Heaps of untouched powder, just begging to be snowboarded on.

A lesser known village in Austria where you can get your game face on.

#3 Mount Buller, Australia

Treeees
And they thought Australia was only good for the kangys and the waves.

Mount Buller is like any other ski resort, but better because it’s actually pretty close to Melbourne.

#4 Štramberk, Czech Republic

Elsa would be right at home here.

Almost like a picture of a history book, the charm of Stramberk is in its medieval type buildings that are excellently maintained. If not for the ski sports, we would crown this as one of the more romantic spots, too.

#5 Serfaus, Austria

Awwwooooooohh!
Awwwooooooohh!

Dating back to the Bronze Ages, this town was reputed to be used as pasture for livestock to graze upon. Then, they graze. Now, we gaze.

#6 Qaqortoq, Greenland

Now who said winter had to be grey?

No one told them that it would look pretty; the villagers just decided to colour their houses brightly.

#7 Jamnik, Slovenia

Looks a little like the tower Rapunzel was kept in.

Nothing can look as good as a church upon a snowy hill, so we applaud whoever suggested that.
