What you’ve seen on TV is real. The dark sky lights up bright green and the colour swirls in a mesmerising dance.

But how easy is it to catch sight of these elusive Lights?

Get started…

Of course, the closer you are to the North Pole the more likely you are to see the Northern Lights.

But sometimes, just sometimes, the Northern Lights can be visible from the UK.

Keep an eye on Lancaster University’s Aurora Watch for likely times and locations! https://aurorawatch.lancs.ac.uk/

A little more Northern Lights adventure…

From the USA and Europe, it’s not so far to catch a flight to Reykjavik and try to see the Aurora Borealis in Iceland.

There’s a perception that a trip to Iceland is expensive, and it can be, but mostly it’s the things you buy once you land. If you book a package deal weekend (flights, hotel and tours) and stick to budget dinner options, it’s really not so bad.

Tours from Reykjavik will take you out to one of the national parks at night in the hope of seeing the light show.

Maximum Northern Lights adventure!

Did you know that you can stay in a glass igloo in Finland? Imagine watching the Northern Lights from the comfort of your bed in a warm cosy igloo! I’d say that is the ultimate Northern Lights Adventure!
