NORTHERN LIGHTS

To experience the Northern lights is on the bucket list of many of us.  The main phenomena in the arctic areas is “the polar night”,  also called “kaamos”. This is the period , from November to February, when the sun struggles to rise and in the areas above the Arctic circle disappears fully for 2 months, That’s why nature  invented the northern lights! Also called the fox fires, ” revontulia”, named after an ancient legend about the arctic fox , running across the snowy landscapes, creating sparks with its tale painting the sky with colors. Lapland’s winter magic is best experienced in the nature. Truly special is a stay in a glass igloo, in the middle of the woods, under the stars , and if lucky, you can see the fox fires from your bed! For a family holiday a cozy wooden cottage or a nice hotel with Spa, restaurant and all the comforts and local specialities under same roof. When in Lapland, try cross country skiing, dog or reindeer sledding, driving a snow scooter, ice fishing. And of course traditional Finnish sauna with “avanto“, ice swimming in a lake or the sea .
