From midnight sun to northern lights

Summer in Northern Norway is a truly unique experience. The midnight sun sits low on the horizon, bathing fjords and mountains in a warm, golden light that lasts around the clock. This creates long, bright days – and nights that feel just as alive as the days.

The landscape around the Lyngen Alps is a perfect setting for spending time outdoors and experiencing nature at its best. The light creates a unique play of colours, especially early and late in the midnight sun season.

As summer transitions into the darker season, the atmosphere changes – but the magic continues. This is when you can experience the northern lights dancing across mountains and fjords, a natural phenomenon that simply has to be seen.

We have gathered a range of tips and suggestions for things to do in the region during summer and autumn.
