The Aurora Trail
About
We will take you out at the prime time of Auroras, as they are said to be visible most likely at the hours around 21:00 and midnight. For sure you have been wondering what the Auroras are and how come they are visible only in the north. Tonight, you will get the answers to all these questions! We will search several locations, but if it is a clear day at our open landscape sighting location, you have the best possibilities to see the Auroras! Hot beverages and small sweet snack is served.
