Midnight Sun Delight

Come and experience the beauty of the Midnight Sun with Wild About Lapland! The pure and untouched landscapes of the Arctic are highlighted by fantastic natural phenomena all year round. From autumn to spring, the famous Northern Lights draw their green and red arches across the starry skies. In summer, the sun never sets and shines all day and all night – this is the Midnight Sun! After a long winter with snow on the ground for over 5 months, the land, vegetation and animals finally have an opportunity to replenish their energy levels and relax with the abundance of life that the 24-hour sun brings with it.

Depending on your physical ability, your experienced outdoor guide will take you into the surrounding nature enjoy the spectacular warm light of the never-setting sun, with some typical Finnish snacks cooked on a campfire. This is a good moment for your guide to show you how to build and light a fire (without matches or lighter!) using flint & steel. They will also explain to you more about Lapland, life in the Arctic, and the phenomenon of the Midnight Sun in relation to the Arctic Circle, where Rovaniemi is located. This tour is intended to be relaxing and educative. Your guide will happily share their knowledge and passion with you and will answer all your questions… so feel free to ask!

The Midnight Sun may also offer you some other great atmospheric optical phenomenon to observe such as sundogs, circumzenithal arcs and other halos created by the sun. The Midnight Sun phenomenon and its warm rays are also a great opportunity for those of you who are photography enthusiasts, so do not forget to bring your camera along to capture the beautiful colours of nature!

In all our activities, our groups are limited to 8 people maximum. It is very important for us to provide you with the best experience possible, and avoid mass tourism. This way, your guide will know you better and will be able to address all your needs and answer your questions. As we usually say – the smaller the group, the bigger the experience!

NOTE: For an adventurous experience of the Midnight Sun, we invite you to check out our Canoeing Trip under the Midnight Sun or special Wilderness Survival Tour.
