Hunting the Northern Light in Norway

Witness nature’s most magical show

The Northern Lights — also known as the Aurora Borealis — are one of the most mesmerizing natural wonders on Earth. In Norway, you have front-row access to this dazzling display of color and movement in the winter sky. Seeing them in person is more than a photo opportunity — it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Where and when to go

The best time to hunt the Northern Lights is between late September and early April, when the Arctic nights are long and dark. Northern Norway is one of the world’s top aurora destinations, with hotspots like Tromsø, Alta, Kirkenes, and the Lofoten Islands offering high visibility and clear skies.

Guided tours for the best experience

Chasing the lights is not just about standing in the cold and hoping for the best. Our local guides use real-time forecasts, satellite data, and deep knowledge of the region to take you where the chances are highest. Tours are often by minibus, snowmobile, or even dog sled — and can include campfire stops and warm refreshments under the stars.

Add a little extra magic

Combine your aurora hunt with other winter experiences like snowshoeing, Sami storytelling, or overnight stays in glass-roofed cabins designed for sky gazing. Whether you're a photographer or a dreamer, the Northern Lights never disappoint.

Unpredictable and unforgettable

No one can guarantee the aurora — but that’s part of the magic. It’s a natural phenomenon that, when it appears, will leave you speechless. And even on nights when it’s shy, the journey through Arctic landscapes under starlit skies is a memory in itself.
