9Tromsø, Norway
Tromsø, located in the Arctic Circle, is one of the best places in the world to witness the Northern Lights. December is an ideal time to visit, as the long, dark nights increase the likelihood of seeing the aurora borealis dancing across the sky. Tromsø also offers a range of winter activities, such as dog sledding, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling through stunning Arctic landscapes.
The city’s unique mix of modern culture and arctic wilderness creates a special experience for visitors. You can learn about the region’s history at the Polar Museum or take a ride on the Fjellheisen cable car to enjoy panoramic views of snow-covered mountains and fjords. Tromsø’s natural beauty and festive atmosphere make it a perfect December escape for those seeking adventure and breathtaking sights.
