We are fortunate that our hometown, Skibotn, is one of the best places to witness this natural phenomenon. Our tours take place both in Skibotn and in Kilpisjärvi, Finland, depending on where the conditions are most promising.



We have private base camps with designated bonfire areas, where guests can gather around the fire and enjoy local or Sámi food along with hot drinks. Toilet facilities are available, and there are also opportunities to warm up indoors.



Our guests are always at the centre of what we do, and we want everyone who visits us to feel well looked after. We strive to create a warm and memorable experience so that each guest leaves with an unforgettable encounter with the Northern Lights.
