The northern lights can be seen from around mid-September to late March. The darker it is, the better, so the months from November to February are the most suitable.

It’s a natural phenomenon and no one can guarantee that you actually will see it – avoid areas where there is a lot of light such as villages and town centres.

The northern lights are an impressive phenomenon that man has always associated with mysticism and the supernatural.
