To see the Northern Lights is an item probably on many people's bucket lists. Since the aurora only appears when certain specific conditions are met, such as geographic location and weather, we would like to introduce you to some places with a high chance of witnessing this nature's magic.
Iso-Syote, Finland
Located about 2 hours away from Rovaniemi, Iso-Syote is an exceptional place to stay in Finnish Lapland. It is the Finnish region that gets the most snow. In the wintertime, Iso-Syote offers an excellent ski area, a host of winter adventures, and of course a wonderful setting to see the Northern Lights. Guests can have an aurora experience even without leaving their room or cottage if they choose so.
Tromso, Norway
Tromso is located in the middle of the Northern Lights Oval, which is the area in the world with the highest probability of seeing the Northern Lights. The best time to see the magnificent natural phenomenon there is from September to April. There are many different ways to hunt the aurora, such as a jeep tour, Northern Lights cruise, Northern Lights Experience with Aurora Camp, and dog
