Like a capricious diva, Aurora Borealis is always expected, then surprising with her appearance and the fascinating and unsuspected show it offers to viewers. It is an unmissable experience for anyone who intends to plan a Lapland holiday, the fairytale land in northern Sweden.
Trip to Lapland, Sweden
"Northern Lights", as this natural phenomenon is also called, love the "hide and seek" game. That is why you will have to arm yourself with a lot of patience to be able to enjoy the unique show, the explosion of colors, sometimes in shades of bright green, other times a bright red or purple, strongly surrounded by shades of pink.
The enchanting spectacle of light, the result of the collision between the particles of the solar wind and those of the Earth's atmosphere, is visible between September and March, when the polar night spreads over the lands of the north of the Earth. The term Aurora Borealis was originally used by Galileo Galilei, being inspired by the Roman goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the titan of the winds, Boreas.
Northern Sweden, the so-called Lapland region, is one of the best places in the northern hemisphere to observe this natural phenomenon from. Located north of the Arctic Circle and a charming wilderness, Lapland attracts visitors from everywhere with its soothing landscapes: mountains covered with evergreen forests perfect for hiking, fast rivers only right for rafting and canoeing, fishing lakes and endless stretches of snow.
The mystical dance of the Northern Lights on the polar night sky is a "at least once in a lifetime experience". It's time to choose a unique experience that you will not forget too soon!
