Experience the magic of chasing the Northern Lights on an exhilarating tour with Æventyr in Alta. Starting at the Explorer store in Alta city centre, your adventure begins with an introduction to your expert guide, who will lead you to the best viewing spots based on weather conditions.
After suiting up in thermals, you’ll set off in a four-wheel drive, venturing into the wilderness to hunt for the elusive Aurora Borealis. The exact location changes nightly depending on the weather and Northern Lights forecast, ensuring the best chance to witness the lights.
Once you arrive, spend a few hours soaking in the stunning display as the Northern Lights dance across the sky.
