Chase the Northern Lights on the arctic plateau

It’s exciting and magical to be chasing the Northern Lights! When you’re moving across the vast expanse of the arctic plateau during the polar night – those winter months when the sun never rises – it is as though you have entered a different world.

During our dark winter months, the clarity of night sky, with perhaps more stars than you have ever observed, the crisp moonlight and the Northern Lights, tinge the snow-covered landscape blue. The mood lends a unique character to our evening adventure. We’ll ride snowmobiles out onto the arctic plateau that we call the “vidda”.

Out here, away from distracting lights of the village, it is much easier to spot and appreciate the Northern Lights that we’re chasing. The mythical stories we’ll share with you also take on a more intense life. Be sure to bring a camera to capture the Northern Lights, and a tripod if you have one.

With two people on each snowmobile, we will ride out into the night. If the weather gods are kind, the skies will be clear – and we will be treated to a dance of the Northern Lights.
