Our Northern Lights expert will lead you to a secret location where you can seek for these spectacular dancing lights far away from any light pollution in the woodlands. Before determining where to see the Auroras, our experienced guide will evaluate the aurora probability and the finest sites the previous afternoon. 

The guide will explain how the Northern Lights are generated, both from a scientific and an old legends standpoint, during the journey. Gingerbread cookies and warm juice will be offered during the tour.

The horses were super cute and the riding in the snowed forest was incredible. It is an activity for all the ages (children were on poneys) and for every experience level.
