Aurora/Northern light watching

Nordlys opplevelse rundt bål.

About this activity

One of the best things about staying in Malangen is that the Northern Lights may appear right outside your door. Away from city lights and busy tourist areas, MAE offers dark skies, open fjord views and a peaceful Arctic setting for aurora watching. On clear winter evenings, you can simply step outside — or even look out from your window — and watch the sky above the fjord. If conditions are right, the aurora may dance over the mountains and reflect in the calm water below, creating a quiet and unforgettable Arctic moment.

Aurora watching is always weather dependent, and the Northern Lights can never be guaranteed. But in Malangen, you do not need to chase the experience in a crowd. You can wait for it slowly, warmly and comfortably, surrounded by the silence of the fjord landscape.

Tip! Book our Arctic Fjord View Sauna for a truly spectacular combined experience!
