Guests on a frosted forest road under the aurora

September to April

Dancing lights

A private northern lights chase with Roy, for a night you have been waiting for.

How far we drive

Troms sits in the middle of the aurora oval, so there is some activity most nights. The hard part is the weather. The lights are higher than the clouds, so we look for clear sky, and that can mean driving up to 500 km in a night.

Nothing in nature is guaranteed, and there is no refund if the lights stay away. Roy does everything he can to give you a good night either way.
