Stargazing

Stargazing

Besides the auroras there’s lots to see on Lapland’s light pollution free dark skies. One just needs to know where to look at and with what equipment.

We can be your guides for different sky phenomena, from earth orbiting satellites to distant galaxies. To see them yourself with naked eye, binoculars or telescopes gives you an experience you will never forget.

Our decades long experience from astronomy will give you the help you need to familiarize yourself with sky, whether it is your first time under dark skies or if you are an amateur photographer.

For photographers we can also provide introduction and guidance to the art of capturing the sky and auroras with cameras.

For us the science comes first and we are ready to answer almost any question that you have about the sky or space in general.

The mythology of the night sky offers many interesting tales that we are happy to tell also.

We recommend you to take first our indoor program in order to get familiarized to sky in more relaxed environment, but we do offer only stargazing too according to your wishes.
