Northers Lights and the highlights of the Arctic | Discover Norway

Northern Norway is dark from afternoon until late morning, when the northern lights frequently soar across the sky. The northern lights can be seen when the sky is clear and dark. Peak time is often between 11 p.m. and 2 a.m. 

On a very basic level, the phenomenon is quite easy to explain. The lights are created from the collision between electrically charged particles from the sun that enter the atmosphere of the earth.

The lights, which are also called aurora borealis, appear at night when the sky is dark. It’s like a celestial ballet of light dancing across the night sky, with a color palette of green, blue, and sometimes even pink and violet.

Although there's no guarantee that the northern lights will appear – they are a natural phenomenon, just like the weather – you are still guaranteed to experience magical light in Northern Norway all through the dark winter season. On clear days, you can see beautiful sunset colors in the south while the sky to the north is a deep midnight blue. In the 'blue hour' at twilight, the snowy landscape is bathed in a glassy, deep blue color.
