Discover the Northern Lights in Swedish Lapland with new direct flights:
New twice-weekly flights to Swedish Lapland are scheduled to begin this winter opening up the option of Northern Lights breaks to Lulea. These new direct flights will make the charming coastal city of Lulea, with its UNESCO old town, more accessible for a short break. A three night Northern Lights City Break itinerary combines the city itself, with its Gothic cathedral, unique art galleries and innovative dining scene, with some adventures beyond the city in the winter wonderland of Swedish Lapland. Explore river valleys and snow-clad forests, or visit remote islands reached by a unique network of ice roads. Northern Lights Photography tours, dog sledding, ice fishing or snowmobiling are also all an option. On the final night, there is an included Northern Lights dinner experience at Brandon Lodge, a magical log cabin on the edge of the frozen sea. It is perfectly poised for some spectacular aurora viewing, and the evening includes a two-course dinner and a chance to view the elusive Northern Lights, with the chance to keep warm by open fires at remote tepees and small huts.
Prices with Best Served Scandinavia (0207 664 2241, best-served.co.uk) for a Northern Lights City Break in Lulea start from £770 per person including return flights and transfers, three nights accommodation on a bed and breakfast basis and a Northern Lights Viewing Dinner at Brandon Lodge. Refundable deposit option available.
Aurora Dome Adventure at Harriniva
A stay in a luxury igloo tent is an experience in itself and is even more fun when enjoyed as part of an Arctic adventure including snowmobiling and husky sledding. The romantic Aurora Domes in Harriniva are idyllically situated on the shores of a frozen lake in one of Finnish Lapland's most scenic spots offering fabulous private views over Lake Torassieppi whilst inside log burners and large double beds provide cosy comforts. Enjoy action-packed days with spectacular Arctic adventures spending two nights in the cosy wilderness lodge Hotel Harriniva and ending with a night in a heated Aurora Dome which breaks the mould by putting the view front and centre. Hunt for those ethereal reds and greens on an included Northern Lights Snowmobile Safari, unwind on a peaceful reindeer sled ride through snow blanketed forests and mush your own team of huskies before heading off for a memorable night under the heated canvas of the Aurora Dome.
Best Served Scandinavia (0207 664 2241, best-served.co.uk) offers a four day action-packed short break including a night in the Torassieppi Aurora Domes from £1,220 per person including flights, transfers, 2 nights at Harriniva Wilderness Lodge on a full board basis, 1 night in an Aurora Dome at Torassieppi including breakfast, a reindeer encounter, Northern Lights Snowmobile Safari and a 17km Husky Safari.

Northern Lights at Arctic Bath & Treehotel
For a unique experience, why not combine two of Swedish Lapland's design gems with a stay at the iconic Treehotel and the all-new Arctic Bath, Sweden's newest winter retreat with its unique floating spa in the middle of the Lule River.
