Day one
After arrival at Luleå airport and your guided transfer to Brändön Lodge the first afternoon is well spent getting to know us, selecting your warm winter clothing and relaxing. A delicious 2 course dinner awaits you in the restaurant in the evening. After dinner our guides will take you out on the frozen sea in a sled towed by a snowmobile on a northern lights hunt in the archipelago.

Day two
Closeness to nature is part of our daily life and today we will spend some time together discussing the forest and the frozen sea and the nature that surrounds us. We will give you some tips on how to live and stay safe in the arctic region in our Nordic Winter Skills activity, that includes lunch, and look for tracks and signs from the variety of wildlife that lives in the area. In the afternoon, you can relax, take a walk or consider one of the many optional activities available. Dinner this evening will be part of an outdoor activity where we head out on a guided snowshoe walk to look for and hopefully photograph the northern lights.

Day three
Waking to a new day by the frozen sea and after enjoying breakfast we will transfer to the Icehotel on a four hour train journey. Here you will check in for your first night in a warm Kaamos hotel room (and the second in an Art Suite or Deluxe Suite). This evening we have arranged a northern lights snowmobile safari. The best place to see it is in the wilderness, away from artificial light and the snowmobile is a great way to get around. Our guide explains how the northern lights appear, what causes it and the folklore around the phenomenon. We will be making a few stops to take pictures, so bring your camera! A cosy dinner at a wilderness camp is included.

This 90-minute tour is perfect for novices. You ride as a passenger in the sled and experience the dogs tremendous desire to run and pull as you travel through the beautiful landscape of northern Lapland.

Abisko Mountain Lodge is located on the border of the the Abisko Village and the Abisko National Park. Here there is special micro climate which results in low percentages of cloud cover and thus great chances to see the northern lights. Even on a short visit. At the mountain Lodge we have arranged lunch and dinner in the restaurant and after dinner you will join a northern lights tour with Lights over Lapland. The premier northern lights company in Scandinavia.
