Frozen lake

A frozen lake is one of the best open places to go aurora-spotting. Go on a guided tour to make sure your trip on natural ice is as safe as possible.

A fell ("tunturi") in Lapland, with little to no tall trees, is a great place to have unobstructed views of the northern lights. Make sure to dress warmly!
