Autumn Aurora Adventure
Autumn is a season too often overlooked as a great time to travel to Swedish Lapland but as the midnight sun dips lower into the horizon the nights get darker again and with them come the chance to see the aurora. With this suggested itinerary our Adventure Artists have you stay at Camp Ripan and explore the surrounding area with some fantastic activities before spending your final night in the ICEHOTEL 365. This is just a taster of what you can do – get in touch to have the trip tailored to your needs.
