6Svalbard, Norway: Arctic Wilderness and Polar Lights

For a truly remote and unforgettable Aurora experience, consider visiting Svalbard, a Norwegian archipelago located between mainland Norway and the North Pole. Svalbard offers some of the northernmost opportunities to see the Northern Lights, especially during the polar night, a period of complete darkness from mid-November to late January. The combination of Svalbard’s pristine Arctic wilderness and the magical display of the Aurora Borealis creates an otherworldly experience. In addition to Northern Lights viewing, visitors can explore glaciers, spot polar bears, and enjoy Arctic adventures like snowmobiling and dog sledding.
