Abisko
Probably The Best Aurora on Earth

Night visit

The night visit starts with a beautiful chair-lift ride up to the Aurora Sky Station. Enjoy the silent Abisko National Park in darkness. Your eyes will gradually get used to the completely dark skies and soon you will see more stars than ever before.

At the Aurora Sky Station there's a cosy café, souvenir shop, look-out tower and northern lights exhibition. Be sure not to miss the popular guided tours.

Disclaimer

The Aurora Sky Station cannot guarantee any viewing of the Aurora Borealis (northern lights). The Aurora Sky Station can be closed on short notice due to the Arctic weather conditions (strong winds, cold temperatures, snow storms etc.). Statistics from previous seasons show that the Aurora Sky Station is open 85-90 % of the scheduled dates and that Aurora Borealis (northern lights) is visible 50-60 % of the nights open. The Aurora Sky Station at the top of the mountain is basic. There is no electricity and the toilets are dry, meaning without any water and unheated.
