Overview
Are you fit and confident in walking on ice and snow and want to reach the most scenic spots in a small, dynamic group?
Using a 4x4 Toyota Land Cruiser Arctic Truck, we will reach the best areas with suitable skies to chase the Aurora Borealis.
If the weather conditions allow, we may set off on a light hike/snowshoeing walk, reaching pristine landscapes, calm fjords, frozen lakes and the best spots that the Arctic has to offer away from the tourism crowds.
Whether the ground will be covered in ice or snow, you will be provided with ice crampons or snow rackets, walking poles, thermal suits as well as foot and hand warmers. Remember to wear your own warm snow boots!
Your guide will take photos of you and the lights, but if you have a camera as well, bring it along! You'll get tips on how to take your own Aurora photographs and use a professional tripod.
A soup for dinner, cookies and hot drinks will warm us up in the wild, while enjoying the night Arctic sky!

Itinerary
- (6h)
At the beginning of the tour, your guide will analyze several weather forecasts in order to predict the best areas for chasing the Northern Lights. We will then set off aboard our capable 4x4 Toyota Land Cruiser until the right area is reached. Once there you will be provided with thermal suits, hand and foot warmers and if conditions allow/require, we may go for a walk or light hike in order to get to the most scenic locations and be ready to witness the Northern Lights.

Please get in touch before booking if you are in doubt!
