Things to do in Northern Lights in Rovaniemi
Breathe in the magic of Arctic nights deep in the white, wintry lands of Rovaniemi as you go in search of the Northern Lights. Lapland’s capital and official hometown of Santa Claus, situated right on the Arctic Circle, is a prime destination if you’re hoping to catch a glimpse of the aurora borealis. Get your hats, scarves and gloves ready for a night of bliss.
Enjoy the enchanting skies come to life and pick from a variety of experiences on offer. Venture into the heart of snow-capped trails on a snowshoe adventure or whizz through the frosty landscapes with snowmobiles. If you prefer to keep out of the cold, bus and vehicle tours can keep you sheltered and drive you to the best viewing spots – you can even view the spectacle from a heated glass cabin. The choice is endless.
Some tours offer campside snacks, local food and hot drinks so expect a cosy night looking up at the skies. Trust in local guides that study the aurora forecast daily to give you the best chance of seeing the northern lights so you’ll be in safe hands. Bring your cameras or simply sit back, relax and live in the moment as the colourful ripples appear above you.

Reviews Northern Lights in Rovaniemi
“It was excellent experience we saw Northern light and gyide was super awesome. He was kind of professional photographer he clicked for us”
“Nous avons pu voir de magnifiques aurores !!!! Merci”
“L'esperienza è stata buona. Al fine di migliorare l'offerta proporrei di avere più fuochi e più grandi (per potersi scaldare meglio) e soprattutto più cibo visto che è stata fornita una cena a base di UNA salsiccia a testa..”
