Hunting the Northern Lights in the Arctic (Porsanger)
Activity Provider: Pirate Husky
Nature is absolutely amazing, and one of the true wonders here in the north, is the magical Northern Lights.
This trip is a search for the Aurora Borealis around Porsangerfjorden. Based on our experience, the latest weather forecast, wind direction and a wide network of knowledgeable locals and guides, we take you to the best spots to hunt the magical Northern Lights.
The Lady in Green, as we also call the Northern Lights, is so much more than just beautiful. It is history, myths and folklore. It is traditions and religions. Did you know the pirates of the Mediterranean believed the Northern Lights lighted up the sky whenever someone crossed over to the realm of the dead. Our guide will tell you all about the myths of the Northern Light, local, national and international.
We use a car or a bus as our base for shelter and to find hot drinks and snacks. This is a fascinating way of searching for the Northern Lights and enjoying the beautiful landscape, even in dark of the Arctic Night.

All dogs are registered with official pedigree papers, are covered by health insurance, and receive veterinary check-ups at least once a year to ensure their long-term health and well-being. Special attention is given to the puppies' socialization from an early age. Through a collaboration with the local kindergarten, children regularly visit the kennel to play with the puppies, helping them grow into confident, friendly, and well-socialized dogs that are comfortable around people of all ages.
