How To See The Magical Northern Lights




For a truly magical sight, nothing comes closer than the exquisite Northern lights phenomena. There are now numerous adventure travel companies that offer organized trips to experience the Northern Lights in both Lapland and the arctic wastes of Canada. By incorporating this magical experience into a holiday, you will have an experience like no other.
The Northern lights have astounded the Sámi people for many centuries and it is thanks to this curiosity that there is now up to 20 folk tales regarding the existence of the lights. Of course, due to the advances in science we are aware of the reason behind the phenomenal lights, which is by electrically charged particles in space hitting the earth’s atmosphere. However, regardless of this, the Northern lights are still a view worth experiencing and are guaranteed to leave you feeling breathless. There are many spots where you can view the lights for yourself, such as various areas within the UK, but for a truly exciting experience, an organized trip to Lapland or Canada will provide you with the experience of a lifetime.
For example, in Whitehorse, Canada, known as ‘the wilderness city’, you will be spoilt for choice with masses of beautiful landscapes such as the Yukon River which runs through the town. With a fantastic backdrop for various adventure activities and a fantastic history behind it, this is the ideal location in which to combine fun with the Northern lights in all of their glory.
Whitehorse has it all for a truly magical holiday with its combination of modern conveniences and natural wilderness which makes it the perfect place in which to kick back and relax or embark on some adventure! The town is home to the famous Yukon Quest Trail dogsled race every single year - something which is sure to put a cherry on your trip.
However, for those looking to really fill in their weekend with some fun, there is plenty to do here. Whilst on your vacation you can enjoy a tour of Whitehorse city, a trip to the Yukon Wildlife preserve, snowmobiling and whatever else may take your fancy. This is a fantastic town in which to experience some adventure and nature while you await the glorious Northern lights display.
For those looking to embark on a spot of skiing in between their viewing of the lights, then a vacation in the quaint village of Luosto in Lapland is the one for you. Almost completely surrounded by the fells of central Lapland, Luosto offers you the brilliant combination of wilderness and action from the ski resort with the comfort and coziness from your own log cabin or hotel room. Those lucky enough to experience the Aurora Borealis on all three occasions will be returning home feeling truly privileged.
Your trip could also include a range of action and adventure in the form of snowshoe treks, a snowmobile safari to ‘Aurora House’ to view the lights, a husky safari and even a trip to the Amethyst mine. In short, providing you with a vacation like no other and a great way in which to experience all your surroundings have to offer you.
The best time in which to view the lights is between 9pm and 1am, so if you’re a bit of an early bird, there’s a chance you may miss this fantastic opportunity! However, once the displays begin, you will be enthralled by the small stationary glow into the night sky which will intrigue you before you become completely astounded by the build up into a spectacular show.
Of course, being a natural phenomenon you cannot be guaranteed that you will view the lights whilst on your holiday, but you can be guaranteed that you will be provided with the trip of a lifetime. For those who are lucky enough to view the lights in all their glory, the image of the lights dancing across the night sky will be forever etched in their memory and one they will never forget.
