Peaceful darkness, a warming camp fire, good company – and the anticipation: Is ”Lady Aurora” in the dancing mood tonight?

The best thing about Kilpisjärvi, from the point of view of the Northern Lights enthusiast, is that according to statistics, Aurora Borealis appear more frequently here than anywhere else in Lapland.

What’s needed is a clear sky, a good vantage point away from artificial lights, and a bit of luck.

We’ll walk to the edge of the village where the Arctic sky can be seen.

Coffee, tea, roasted sausages, sandwiches, homemade cake and good stories around camp fire are on the agenda.
