An unique method of experiencing the Northern Lights has actually concerned Finland.
The brand-new Aurora Wilderness Camp, situated near the town of Kilpisjärvi, is consisted of 3 mobile cabins that have actually been installed on skis so that they can be dragged into the remote reaches of the nation’s Lapland area. And due to the fact that each system has a glass roofing, visitors have a likelihood of finding the Northern Lights from the convenience of their beds.
Readily available from experience trip business Off the Map Travel, the over night experience consists of transport to camp through snowmobile in addition to arrangements for supper and breakfast and making use of snowshoes and kicksleds for those who demand stepping outdoors..
Each cabin is huge enough for 2 visitors and includes a bed, table, dry toilet, gas heating unit, and gas range. Rates begin around ₤ 1,500 (US$ 2,000) per individual. In addition to the night at Aurora Wilderness Camp, that cost covers all meals, 2 more nights at a neighboring chalet, and transfers to the airport in Tromsø, Norway. Air travel needs to be acquired individually.
So the experience isn’t low-cost. However a minimum of the chances remain in your favor of getting a glance of swirling greens and purples in the sky. According to Off the Map Travel’s site, “the Kilpisjärvi location has more clear night skies and records more Northern Lights activity than any other location in Finland.”.
Because the ski-mounted cabins are just readily available for reservations through the middle of April, it’s most likely far too late to prepare a journey for this year. However they’ll resume in January 2019.
