Experience the mesmerising Arctic winter night while chasing the breathtaking Northern Lights by car in Pyhä. Welcoming adventurers from ages 3 and up on this family-friendly excursion!

Pyhä is a village located in northern Finland, specifically in the magical region of Lapland. Situated within the Pyhä-Luosto National Park, the area is surrounded by Arctic wilderness, stunning natural beauty, and winter sports facilities. Due to its proximity to the Arctic Circle, it is also one of the best places in the world to witness the Northern Lights!

This adventure begins at one of the listed pick-up points (please specify when booking), where your experienced guide will collect you in a warm and comfortable minivan. This excursion is family-friendly and infant seats will be available if needed. Once the entire group has been picked up, the chase to find the Northern Lights will begin!

The knowledgeable guide will track the weather forecast and space data to determine the best possible location to witness the natural phenomenon. They will choose the best viewpoint within 100km of the Pyhä-Luosto area. Driving allows you to cover more distance and have the best chance of spotting the lights. Once you reach the destination, you will hopefully be graced with the beautiful dance of the Aurora Borealis!

Your guide will build a roaring campfire for you to sit around and enjoy some snacks and hot drinks, while you take in the mesmerising view. The guide will have professional photography equipment for taking photos, and they will also help you capture your own pictures using your camera. While relaxing in the remote forest, the guide will share stories about Arctic life and the history behind this natural wonder. Once you have taken in the magnificent scenery, you will then be driven back to your original starting point.
