The polar night, or kaamos, is a magical period in Lapland.The blue light of twilight, metres and metres of snow, andextreme frost – this is what the heart of winter is made of.In January, when the sun finally rises after its long retreat,

the days quickly grow longer. What could soothe thesoul more than skiing on densely packed snow or takinga snowmobile out in the crisp, bright winter sunshine?

Kakslauttanen offers a very good opportunity to see theNorthern Lights. One of the best way to see them is to

spend a night in our unique glass igloo.

Summer in Lapland is intense – the sun never sets betweenmid-May and early August. That’s why Lapland is often called

the Land of the Midnight Sun. This is not to suggest a scorching heat; the weather will be perfect for hiking up and down the

fells – day and night if you wish. The summer season endsin September, when the ruska period sets in and natureis ablaze with a magnificent array of changing colours.
