A helicopter drops off a skier on a peak in Riksgransen, Sweden, the world's northernmost ski resort. Heli-skiing is offered in packages of one to three runs -- the latter the most economical; 1,395 kronor (about $167) to 2,195 kronor (about $260). The season runs from mid-February until the end of June, when you can ski under a midnight sun.

Gliding down the town's surrounding pale blue glaciers and nearly 200 miles of marked trails is the essence of skiing.New YorkTimes
