Exclusive hunting for the Northern lights with the SamiCamp team (including feeding the reindeers)
Join us for a Northern Lights Chase Experience from Samicamp in Skibotn, which is well known to be a perfect spot for watching the "Dancing Lady" in the night sky.
This is due to climatic conditions that make the place one of those with the least amount of rainfall during the year. The clouds often open up when you get to Skibotn and the Skibotn Valley and a cloudless sky gives you a better chance of seeing the northern lights. The hunting for the lady will be in Skibotnvalley. Close to the borderline of Finland
We will take you on an Arctic journey that you will never forget.
We will welcome you to our Lavvo ( Sami tent) at Samicamp. The 3-course dinner will be served inside our heated lavvo. You will also get a chance to feed the reindeers at the camp.
Once your hosts have found a scenic spot, you will take off from the sami basecamp and hunt for the Northern Lights.
We search the polar sky for the Northern Lights and capture them in photos.
If the dancing lady does not appear, or the weather conditions change, we may need to move on and continue the chase.
