Highlists of the year

• The Midnight Sun shines 24/7 in June-July. It is really sunny and bright in the night so plan your trips for late.
• The sky colouring Nortern Lights can already be seen in late August as soon as night are dark. Aurora season lasts until April, lasting easily more than half a year!
• Colors of the Autumn makes landscape yellow-orange-red - very beautiful time in Lapland
• Sun does not shine at all during Polar Night in December. Instead the sky glows red, pink and blue for daylight hours 10pm-4pm.
• Snow covered trees and magic forests are at the best in December-January.

In the peak demanding accessible Ylläs History Trail can be visited in summer months (June-September).
