About this experience

A magical summer nightwalk in arctic nature, in Finnish Lapland, takes you to experience the midnight sun, a nightless night, when the sun does not fall below the horizon.

The sun just bounces off the horizon at midnight and continues its journey. Summer night in north is a bluish-green, serene world, tranquil lakes, silent forest, misty bogs and this magical summer night light.

Once you’ve been on a summer night walk in Riisitunturi fell, you’ll never forget it. You’ll walk through the old spruce forest and follow the path up to the top of the fell where you’ll the landscape that continues endlessly all around us.

Your guide knows a lot of stories about the nature, culture and history of the north. As you walk toward the campfire to have a night snack, you will hear best of them.

After midnight, you’ll leave behind nature that never sleeps in summer.
