About this activity
Hunt the Northern Lights from a handpicked lakeside location near Rovaniemi, where expert guides combine stargazing with professional photography to capture both the Aurora Borealis and you in the Arctic wilderness. This 3-hour experience blends Arctic nature with comfort—warming by campfire between light shows while sipping hot drinks and local snacks.
Our expert team will guide you to a scenic place carefully selected for the wide and tranquil atmosphere. This handpicked location opens up to the northern sky, offering a quiet, beautiful setting where the Aurora may just appear. With the calm northern sky, the journey itself is an unforgettable experience, surrounded by the quiet beauty of the Arctic wilderness under a blanket of stars. As you wait for the skies to come alive, warm yourself by a cozy campfire while enjoying a hot drink and a local snack, soaking in the magic of the Arctic night.
The aurora will begin as faint glimmers in the sky, then slowly spreads and brightens into flowing waves of light that change shapes and colors. Our experienced guides are also skilled photographers who will capture your memorable photos - both of the Aurora Borealis when it graces the sky and of you enjoying the moment in this magical setting. This unique blend of nature’s wonder, comfort, and expert guidance makes for a truly memorable adventure in one of the world’s most spectacular places.

Insider tips
- ★Arrive with realistic expectations—aurora visibility depends on geomagnetic activity; guides will position you for best chances but sightings are never guaranteed
- ★Dress in extreme cold-weather gear (thermal layers, insulated boots, balaclava); standing outdoors for 3 hours in Rovaniemi winter requires serious preparation
- ★The campfire and hot drinks are essential comfort anchors during waits—arrive ready to embrace the slow rhythm of aurora hunting rather than expecting instant payoff
