Her royal duties usually involve attending a charity meeting in a smart dress and towering heels.
But today Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden opted for something a little different as she donned her snow gear and skis.
The royal, 40, was taking part in a Province Walk in Tarnaby and Hemavan in Swedish Lapland - a series of picturesque hikes set up to promote nature exploration in Sweden.
Mother-of-two Victoria looked sporty in black ski trousers teamed with a blue sports jacket to keep the chill at bay.
She kept cosy in a colourful knitted hat and donned a pair of dark shades to protect her eyes from the glare.
