Want to experience the magic of a night in the mountains but feel uneasy about going alone?

Join our experienced guides and let them handle everything for you - from navigation to setting up your cozy observation base. You’ll be able to fully immerse yourself in the adventure without any worries.

THIS IS NOT A HIKING TOUR, so you won’t need to worry about strenuous activity. While there will be some walking as we explore different locations, it won’t be much. Once we reach the perfect spot, our team will set up a comfortable base just for you. Relax in comfy chairs and inflatable loungers, equipped with headlamps to light your way. Sip on hot chocolate or tea and wrap yourself in blankets as you soak in the peaceful atmosphere of a mountain night.

If the skies are clear, we’ll provide a telescope for a closer look at celestial wonders like stars and planets. And if fortune smiles upon us, the elusive Northern Lights might even make an appearance!

PLUS, A FUN SURPRISE ACTIVITY!

    This was a wonderful experience despite the mostly cloudy conditions. The guides shared their knowledge and identified certain visible constellations, set up a scope for us to get a closer view, warmed us up with hot chocolate and spiced tea. Then a surprise activity that we were able to capture on our smart phone cameras. But I will not provide the details so that others can experience the activity firsthand.

    The guides were wonderful! Very courteous and upbeat. Tried every way possible to make us comfortable and entertained. Took us to one of the best spots for night sky viewing. Gave lots of info about the area. Provided blankets, chairs, and hot drinks. Unfortunately nature did not cooperate so we saw very few stars and no aurora.

    Lovely starry night with great tour guides! Got to learn not only about the stars but also local flora and fauna - and bears! Bear safety was taken very seriously which was good. Driver picked me up on time too.
