“What are my chances of seeing the Northern Lights?” It’s the question we hear most before any trip to Lapland.
It comes down to three things: location, darkness and time. Ivalo lies at 68 degrees north, right beneath the auroral oval, and around New Year the sun doesn’t rise at all. Stay seven nights, and a few cloudy days are nothing to worry about.
Where you spend those nights matters just as much. At Aurora Village, you lie warm and undisturbed beneath a glass roof, with nothing but forest around you. The lights often appear only briefly, and usually late at night, so a sky camera alerts you the moment they do. No long hours waiting out in the cold.
By day, Lapland’s silence is yours: on a husky sled, on snowmobiles, or in the panoramic sauna overlooking the forest.
We still have one chalet available at Aurora Village starting in January. If you’ve been thinking about spending Janurary beneath the Northern Lights, this might be your moment. Just get in touch, and we’ll take care of the rest.
