- Fall / Autumn 2026
Autumn in Lapland offers unique chances to blend wilderness hiking with Northern Lights viewing before winter sets in. Several tours take advantage of this special time, including a remote trek through Käsivarsi where you'll spend nights camping in two-person tents while photographing the aurora. Our TourRadar customers particularly enjoy the gradual ascent from birch forests to open tundra, often spotting wild reindeer herds along the way. The Finnish-focused tour starting from Ylläs combines daily hikes of 5-10 kilometers with opportunities to forage for mushrooms and berries, plus evening aurora photography sessions. For those seeking cultural elements alongside nature, the Helsinki-to-Lapland route lets you explore the capital's historic Senate Square before flying north to sleep in glass igloos and meet reindeer herders. These autumn adventures typically include practical elements like proper safety briefings and expert guides who know exactly where to position you for the best Northern Lights photos.
