 One day I'll go to Lapland to see the Northern Lights. 

Statistically, the northern lights in Lapland are most likely to be seen from mid-August to mid-April. Every year, the Northern lights are a common sight at Pyhä-Luosto and the past few years have been excellent for observing the northern lights.

To increase the chance of seeing them, there is a  Aurora Alert Realtime system free of charge offered to all visitors in Pyhä and Luosto. Visitors will be able to access it via a mobile data connection or using free Wi-Fi networks offered by local businesses. 

This lean-to-shelter at Isokuru seems a nice place to take a break after a hike and enjoy the lights.
