About

Experience the magical colors of the Aurora Borealis. Join us on snowmobiles as we head into the dark and hunt the northern lights.

Our guides will use their local knowledge and experience to give you the best chances of experiencing the northern lights. This trip is an open-destination trip which means that the guide will choose the route based on weather-forecast and current conditions.

As we leave Longyearbyen behind, we will drive into one of the many side-valleys and away from the light pollution of the settlements. Here we get the chance to experience the magical lights in an untouched arctic landscape. On the way, we might visit our traditional gamme for some warmth and a hot drink while we wait.
