Northern lights season starts in just a few months! 💚🌟✨

Gimsøy is among the best places in Lofoten to see the northern lights. There is practically no light pollution, especially on the western side where Lillevik is located. Gimsøy has wide views of the sky, mountains and ocean.

If stay at Lillevik, there is no need to go anywhere else to see northern lights. All these photos are taken just outside the house. You can go other places if you want, maybe to a beach like Vinjestranda just 10 minutes away, but you can see the northern lights from Lillevik’s couches through the panorama windows if you want.

The lights are very high up in the sky (100 to 200 kilometers) and visible from anywhere with a clear view of the sky and no light pollution (as in towns), so you don’t have to “chase” them (it would be almost like “chasing” the moon).

You can see them from anywhere where there are no mountains blocking the view, or street/city lights that make it difficult. Statistically, spring (March/April) and autumn (September/October) have the highest level of aurora activity.

There are northern lights almost every night, and the challenge is always the weather. It’s possible to see northern lights almost every night when there is a clear sky – but you have to be looking for it at the right time. The lights may be very faint and barely visible some nights, and very strong and “dancing” with different colors other nights. It can change in minutes, or even seconds.

Summer at Lillevik. 😍 We have a few dates available if you would like to stay in our cozy holiday house at Gimsøy in Lofoten:
- June 14-20
- August 25 - September 4
- September 22-27
- October 17 and later.

We think it's the best location: Calm and quiet, with fantastic views, sun all day (and night), and still just 30 minutes from popular tourist hotspots like Henningsvær and Svolvær. You can go on day trips to everywhere in Lofoten, even to Å, and retreat back to your home away from home after seeing the signs and doing activities.

Lillevik in May. Still snow on the mountain tops, and still decent skiing conditions for the enthusiasts. For others: Excellent terrace conditions.
