4.Sälen: Northern Lights Snowshoe Adventure with Pickup

★★★★★★★★★★3.9 · 5 reviews · 3 hours · from $165

Meet your guide at your Sälen hotel, ride to the foot of Köarskärsfjället, and walk into the snow with poles and snowshoes. Guides such as Johanna and Andreas add local insight and photo help. Expect a small group, hot drinks, a Swedish wrap, and a real chance of clouds or no aurora.

“Hyggelig tur med mulighed for at se nordlys. Husk at moder natur ikke kan udstikke en garanti for at man kan se det. Det er KOLDT, så klæd dig godt på. Vores guide, Johanna, var enormt god, og da hun er fotograf til hverdag, kunne hun også hjælpe lidt med fotografering. Vi fik ikke rigtigt set nordlyset, men det er ikke hverken guiden eller selskabets skyld. Det er et sats man må tage. Det var rigtigt hyggeligt omkring bålet med varm kakao, kanelbullar og ristede skumfiduser.”

5.Northern Lights Snowshoe Hike in Levi with Latvian Guide

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3 reviews · 3 hours · from $116

Leave Levi’s lights behind for a three-hour snowshoe walk with a small group of up to eight. Guide Mikus has led this outing with hot tea, homemade treats, and helpful Northern Lights photography. The pace stays relaxed, but the lights are never guaranteed.

“We had a great time in the woods at a freezing night out to search for the northern lights (which luckily appeared on a starry night sky with an almost full moon) with Mikus who is a fantastic guide and brought hot tea and brownies with selfmade honey! He also did great photographs of us once the lights where out.”
