Autumn Auroras at Lakituvat Log Cabins
Even though many people associate the aurora with cold and snowy destinations, one of the most active seasons is autumn and the lights can be seen from as early as September.
By day, autumnal colours are reflected in glass-mirror lakes and by night, the sky can be filled with the dancing Northern Lights.
Tour Itinerary
Fly to Rovaniemi, the capital of Lapland, and check in your wooden chalet for 4 nights.

Enjoy breakfast at the Sky Restaurant, drive even further out of the city to embark on a guided fat bike excursion in the surrounding wild forests. The fat bikes are designed to tackle mountainous terrain and a great for off-roading in the wilderness. Cycle around the lake area and make a pit stop for sausages grilled by an open campfire and refreshments. Return to the chalet and relax at leisure. In the evening, drive away from the city lights an enjoy a Lappish picnic under the northern lights. Rovaniemi's location, high in the Arctic Circle, means that possibilities are high! (B,L,D)
