Northern Lights Experiences
3 hour Northern Lights walk with dinner
In the evening, just on dusk we will head for a 3 hour nature walk. While walking through the Brändö forests or along the coastal beaches our experienced guide will inform you about the surrounding nature and wildlife and if conditions are right the Northern Lights may be spotted! Along the way there will be a break during which our guests will light a fire and prepare coffee and tea. Dinner will be prepared outdoors by the guide and enjoyed sitting on reindeer furs under the dark sky. This is as close to nature as you can get.
Evening guided Northern Lights boat tour
The view to the north from Brändön has only low islands and the sea of the Bay of Bothnia. This makes for an uninterrupted view of the northern sky and if conditions are right the northern lights. To maximise this experience, we take a short boat tour at dusk out to one of the nearby islands. Here we will make a small fire on the beach, prepare some snacks and drinks and wait, hopefully, for the magical northern lights. A second option includes an extra hour and our guide will cook a fantastic outdoor dinner on the island.
Snowmobiling Activities
Northern Lights snowmobile tour
Embark on a snowmobile adventure through the Arctic night, leaving the lodge and all artificial lights behind. Venturing into complete darkness significantly increases your chances of witnessing the Northern Lights!

It’s the perfect combination of two incredible worlds—chasing the Northern Lights while enjoying the thrill of an exciting snowmobile ride.

Afterward, we’ll stroll with the reindeer and learn more about the Sami. Upon reaching the tent, we’ll gather around the fire for tea, soaking in the atmosphere and continuing our conversation with Jon-Anders. A delicious lunch will also be served by the fire.

Our goal is to venture into the Swedish Lapland forest, explore its incredible nature, and, if lucky, catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights. On a guided snowshoe walk, you’ll learn about the environment, and if conditions allow, we may spot the aurora. We’ll cover the science behind the Northern Lights, including the different colors, frequency, and tips for photographing them. Along the way, we’ll pause to light a fire in the snow, identify constellations, and track wildlife. Once the fire is burning, we’ll enjoy coffee, tea, and local cake. On the longer 3-hour adventure, the guide will prepare dinner outdoors, and we’ll dine on reindeer furs beneath the dark sky. This is a true immersion in nature.
Ice Fishing
2 hour ice fishing
Being out in nature, learning about the marine environment and our arctic life is the goal of this tour as well as even catching a fish to take back to the lodge for lunch. Your guide will give you an insight into the nature of our frozen sea, the ice conditions that we can find and how to safely navigate in this frozen world. Ice fishing on the frozen sea ice is an important part of our local lifestyle and for generations has been a way for people to supplement their diet. Join us for two hours including a break with a hot beverage and some sweet bread. Our guide brings all necessary equipment and we use our big snowmobile sled to reach the best locations. We drill our holes in the ice and start fishing for “the big one”. A normal catch would be perch or sometimes pike.
