Northern Lights Safari in Norway: A Magical Journey from Tromsø to Lyngenfjord

Experience the magic of Arctic Norway through the eyes of our first American guests, who traveled from Colorado to witness the mesmerizing Northern Lights. Their adventure showcases why Lyngskroa Hotel offers one of Norway's most authentic and intimate aurora experiences.

The Journey Begins: VIP Transfer from Tromsø Airport

Your Arctic adventure starts the moment you land at Tromsø Airport. Unlike larger commercial tours, at Lyngskroa, we believe in personalized service from the very beginning. Our guests were welcomed by our dedicated staff member and whisked away in our comfortable VW Transporter for a scenic 100-kilometer journey through the stunning Norwegian landscape.

The drive from Tromsø to Lyngskroa Hotel isn't just a transfer – it's your first introduction to the breathtaking Lyngen Alps region. As our American friends discovered, every turn reveals new mountains, fjords, and Arctic scenery that makes Northern Norway truly special.

Welcome to Lyngskroa: Where Arctic Comfort Meets Adventure

Nestled at the heart of Lyngenfjord, Lyngskroa Hotel offers a perfect base for Northern Lights hunting. Upon arrival, our guests were treated to a warm Norwegian dinner, preparing them for their nighttime aurora adventure. The hotel's unique location, far from urban light pollution, provides optimal conditions for viewing the Northern Lights.

Chasing the Aurora: A Norwegian-Style Northern Lights Safari

What sets a Lyngskroa aurora experience apart? It's all in the details. Before departure, our staff carefully packed a selection of traditional Norwegian treats:

  • Kvikklunsj: Norway's beloved chocolate bar, perfect for outdoor adventures

  • Brunost-sandwich: Traditional brown cheese on fresh bread – a uniquely Norwegian flavor

  • Hot beverages: Fresh coffee and hot cocoa to keep warm under the Arctic sky

  • Fresh oranges and snacks: Carefully selected refreshments for energy during our hunt

Hidden Gems of the Arctic

Our journey took us along Lyngenfjord and toward Skibotn Valley, near the Finnish border. The first stop revealed the magnificent Rovijokkfossen – a powerful waterfall with a 25-meter drop that roars through the Arctic landscape. It was here that our American guests caught their first glimpse of the ethereal Northern Lights.

When clouds temporarily obscured our view, we didn't give up. Instead, we continued to our secret location – a spot known only to local guides, far from the typical tourist routes.

The Ultimate Aurora Experience

At our private viewing spot, we created the perfect setting for aurora watching:

  • Comfortable chairs equipped with authentic reindeer and wild sheep skins

  • A serene environment away from light pollution

  • Panoramic views of the surrounding landscape

Nature put on a spectacular show for our guests. Within 15 minutes, the moon illuminated the water and surrounding mountains, creating an ethereal Arctic landscape. Above, the Northern Lights began their mesmerizing dance across the star-studded sky, creating an unforgettable moment for our Colorado visitors.
