Chasing the Northern Lights

Why This Experience Is Different

The Northern Lights don’t follow schedules — and we don’t wait around. When the conditions are right, we'll head into the wilderness in search of the clearest skies we can find.

With a campfire, warm drinks, and the Arctic night around us, every hunt becomes its own story — lights or no lights.

What to Expect

• Into the wilderness – When the conditions line up, we leave the village lights behind and chase the clearest skies we can find.
• Campfire warmth – Hot drinks, good snacks, and a crackling fire while the Arctic night surrounds us.
• The quiet of the Arctic– No crowds, no noise — just darkness, snow, and a sky that might erupt into colour at any moment.
• A night you won’t forget – Aurora or not, the experience itself is unforgettable.

Combine This Experience

After an evening beneath the Arctic sky, or before darkness falls, combine your Northern Lights hunt with another local experience.

• ‍Off-Trail Snowmobiling – Ride beyond the usual tracks and explore real Lapland during the day — the perfect adventure to pair with an evening aurora hunt.‍
• Ice Fishing – A quiet moment on a frozen lake, ideal for a full day outdoors before chasing the lights.‍
• Reindeer Farm & Sledge Ride – Authentic, local, and far from the touristy version.‍
