Early Winter Magic in Kilpisjärvi: Nature Walk with Campfire Stories and Northern Lights Quest

If you’re looking to experience a bit of Lapland magic without diving into the full winter chill, our Arctic evening walk is just the ticket.

Kilpisjärvi is the perfect spot for Northern Lights chasers, as this village sees the Aurora Borealis more frequently than any other place in Lapland. You might even catch a glimpse of the lights just by stepping outside your accommodations. But if you want to venture into nature, we’d love for you to join us on our evening walk.

We’ll trade the village lights for nature with a short walk. Once we reach our campsite, we’ll gather around a bonfire, sharing stories of life in the Arctic during the eight seasons of the year, along with the facts and fiction of "Lady Aurora." Sometimes she puts on a spectacular show, and sometimes she’s shy and stays in hiding. Even if Lady Aurora plays hard to get, there’s always a touch of magic in the air. At the campsite, we’ll enjoy roasted sausages, hot beverages, and homemade pastries.

This experience is a chance to connect with nature, learn about the Arctic lifestyle, and maybe, just maybe, catch a glimpse of the magical Northern Lights. So, bundle up, bring your curiosity, and let’s see what magic we can discover together!
