About this activity

Join us on the hunt for the northern lights and explore Kiruna to Abisko. Our guides use the weather & northern lights (aurora borealis) forecast to predict the best locations to have the highest probability to see northern lights. Northern lights is a natural phenomenon and changes constantly the same as the wild nature. Our guides do everything in their power to guide you to northern lights but sometimes it´s not possible due to weather conditions.

If you are a photographer you are in good hands as we always try to find good spots for photography. Tripod is needed to photograph Northern lights as you need long shuttertime.

We make a short introduction of the tour and how it works. Then buckle up and the hunt for the Northern lights has began for the night.

Always small groups of maximum 7 people invites to a genuine experience to remember for a long time.
