The Levi Glacier Express lift and slopes form one of the most iconic viewpoints in Finland’s premier ski resort. Through this live webcam, you can watch real-time scenes from one of Levi’s most popular ski areas, where the thrill of alpine activity meets the stunning beauty of Lapland’s snowy wilderness.
The Glacier Express lift is a modern, high-speed chairlift that carries skiers and snowboarders smoothly up Levi Fell, providing quick access to well-groomed slopes suited for all levels. From beginners just learning the basics to experienced riders carving confident turns, the variety of terrain here makes it a focal point of the resort. Watching the lift in operation gives you a sense of the resort’s lively energy during peak winter months, with chairs steadily moving and people hopping on and off with practiced ease.
In winter, the scene is pure Lapland magic. The slopes are blanketed with thick, fresh snow, and the air often sparkles with ice crystals in the soft Arctic light. Depending on the time of day, the webcam may show the slopes glowing pink and gold during the short sunrise hours or illuminated by powerful floodlights during night skiing sessions. The cold, crisp air and silent expanse of surrounding forest complete the picture of a classic Nordic ski paradise.
Spring skiing at Levi is a particularly beautiful time to watch. The days grow longer, the sun is warmer, and the snow takes on a softer quality — perfect for relaxed runs and scenic chairlift rides. The webcam captures this seasonal shift vividly, as the contrast between the bright white slopes and the deep blue Lapland sky becomes especially striking.
In summer and autumn, while the lift is at rest, the slopes transform into a green hillside used for hiking and downhill biking. The surrounding fell scenery remains dramatic, with rolling landscapes stretching toward the horizon. Summer light in Lapland is famously endless, with the Midnight Sun casting a gentle glow across the slopes well past midnight. In autumn, the nearby forests erupt in fiery shades of yellow and orange, a sight just as captivating as any winter view.
The Glacier Express area is not only a hub for skiing but also a social point. At the base, you’ll often find people relaxing with a hot drink or meal, watching friends and family descend the slopes. The steady rhythm of lift operations and the bursts of laughter and excitement from skiers create an atmosphere that’s both energizing and welcoming.
For anyone planning a trip to Levi, this webcam is a useful tool: it shows current snow conditions, crowd levels, and weather patterns, helping visitors prepare for their day on the slopes. But even if you’re far from Finland, it’s a simple way to bring a little Lapland magic into your day. Whether it’s the quiet of a snowy morning, the action of a busy ski afternoon, or the peaceful stillness of summer, the Levi Glacier Express lift and slopes offer a view worth checking in on year-round.
