Northern Light Tours
THIS YEAR WE OFFER TWO OF THE BEST NORTHERN LIGHT TOURS IN THE AREA
The Northern Light or the Aurora Borealis is what most people are here to see and there is no better place in the world than Abisko to see them. The first thing you need is a clear sky or at least a half clear sky, clouds are our enemy. This is what Abisko is best at, keeping the clouds away. Not only is there a clear and bright sky very often, in Abisko. It is also so north that you can see the lights from September to the mid of April. You can see the lights from almost everywhere in Abisko but, to give you that little extra we offer you four tours that not only will allow you to see the sky shine with Northern Lights, but also in the best locations that can be found.
THE ULTIMATE AURORA PHOTO ADVENTURE
Join one of Lights Over Lapland’s professional aurora guides for an opportunity to see and
photograph the aurora borealis in one of our lovely locations in and around Abisko National Park.
Due to a tendency for clear skies, Abisko is one of the greatest places in the world to see the
northern lights. We will provide you with a DSLR camera & lens that is preset to capture the
northern lights and quickly go over the basic skills that you will need to find and photograph the
magical aurora borealis.
Our Ultimate Aurora Photo Adventure offers you THREE different ways to see the northern
lights: depending upon the weather and aurora forecast we will hunt for the lights on foot at a
nearby teepee, chase the lights in a modern 4×4 van, or ride on a cozy sleigh which is pulled behind a
snowmobile to one of our wilderness camps in and around Abisko National Park.
This evening under the stars offers you a fantastic opportunity to learn about the culture & natural
history of Lapland and gives you a chance to experience beauty that can only be found in Abisko
National Park. During our time together we will discuss the way that locals interact with nature and
explore the cultural interpretations of the northern lights that the local inhabitants of the region
have believed during the last several centuries. Small groups of 8 guests guarantee a very personal
and genuine experience and ensure a safe and comfortable trip into the Arctic environment.
