Why it works for the aurora

View
South-east to south-west over open forest and bog; Levi fell (≈530 m) blocks the low northern sky, so it suits strong auroras overhead and to the south..
Darkness
Mostly dark sky, grade 2 on a scale from 0 (darkest) to 5. Some light from a village, houses or a road nearby.
Aurora
Under the auroral oval: aurora can be overhead even on quiet nights.

Before you go

Dress for standing still in the cold, bring a head torch with a red light, and park only where parking is allowed. A forecast is guidance, not a promise: check the road and weather warnings for Finland before a night drive. See our winter safety note.
