Green and violet ribbons dancing above snow-covered forests, fjords and volcanic landscapes. The Northern Lights can become the defining moment of a journey, while the anticipation offers a reason to spend a few days surrounded by the nature of the North.<\/span><\/p>\n

We have selected four destinations and three places to stay in each.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"How<\/span><\/h3>\n

Finland: Panoramic Windows and Snow-Covered Forests<\/span><\/h3>\n

Finnish Lapland is a wonderful choice for a romantic escape or a family holiday. Spend your evenings watching for the aurora and unwinding in a sauna, and your winter days exploring snowy forests.<\/span><\/p>\n

Where to stay:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Arctic TreeHouse Hotel, Rovaniemi.<\/span><\/strong> Suites on a wooded hillside with large panoramic windows overlooking the forest and Arctic sky.<\/span><\/p>\n

Autumn and spring also offer opportunities to see the aurora. Snow is not essential; dark, clear skies are what matter.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Best<\/span><\/h3>\n

Norway: The Northern Lights Above the Fjords<\/span><\/h3>\n

Choose Troms\u00f8 and the Lyngen region for Arctic scenery, coastal landscapes and guided excursions in search of the aurora. Around Troms\u00f8, the viewing season usually runs from late August to early April.<\/span><\/p>\n

Where to stay:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Lyngen Lodge.<\/span><\/strong> An intimate lodge in peaceful surroundings with minimal light pollution. When conditions are favourable, the Northern Lights may be visible directly from the property.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Lyngen North.<\/span><\/strong> Glass igloos beside the Lyngenfjord with views towards the Lyngen Alps. Panoramic glazing lets you watch the sky from your room.<\/span><\/p>\n

This region suits travellers who want to spend a few days among mountains and fjords, with guided evening excursions to seek out the aurora.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Best<\/span><\/h3>\n

Iceland: Night Skies and Volcanic Landscapes<\/span><\/h3>\n

In Iceland, a Northern Lights journey can easily become an itinerary of waterfalls, black-sand beaches and geothermal baths. The main viewing season runs from September to April.<\/span><\/p>\n

Where to stay:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Hotel Rang\u00e1, South Iceland.<\/span><\/strong> A countryside hotel away from bright city lights, with its own observatory and outdoor hot tubs. Guests can request a wake-up call if the aurora appears during the night.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2022 <\/span>Torfh\u00fas Retreat, Golden Circle region.<\/span><\/strong> Traditional turf-roofed houses with geothermal basalt pools. For greater privacy, choose a Torfh\u00fas or Torfvilla with its own outdoor pool.<\/span><\/p>\n

Iceland is an excellent choice for travellers who want to combine days of exploration with comfortable evenings watching the sky.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Where<\/span><\/h3>\n

Sweden: Ice Suites and Arctic Adventures<\/span><\/h3>\n

Swedish Lapland is ideal for travellers seeking unusual places to stay and memorable winter experiences.<\/span><\/p>\n

Planning Your Journey<\/span><\/h3>\n

The Northern Lights depend on solar activity, cloud cover and darkness, so sightings cannot be guaranteed on a particular date. Allow several evenings for viewing and choose accommodation away from bright city lights.<\/span><\/p>\n
