The midnight sun
In the summer we have a nightless night for a couple of months - the sun does not set at all and lush nature is at its greenest. You can enjoy the nature night and day, why not to admire the midnight sun on the top of the nearby fells.
Foliage
September is the best foliage season with stunning autumn colors and it is also one of the most popular hiking seasons. What’s more beautiful than wandering in sunny mountain scenery surrounded by sparkling browns.
Northern lights
Northern lights will be visible to us from the end of August, as soon as the nights start to get dark. In the fall, the northern lights are really impressive because the nights are completely dark before the snow rains on the ground.
Berry & mushroom picking
Lapland is famous for its pure nature, where you can find berries and mushrooms. What better way to enjoy nature’s wonderful taste experiences than to first collect berries or mushrooms from nature and then make a delicious meal from them. If necessary, we will arrange for a local chef to give tips on local recipes.
