Northern Lights Adventure in the Wild with Campfire Treats
Overview
Available languages
3 hours 30 minutes
Mobile ticket
This experience shows Lapland in its most authentic, intimate form. Instead of crowded spots, you’re taken deep into the wilderness by truely local guides to their family’s traditional cabin on a remote frozen lake. The silence, darkness, and untouched nature create an atmosphere you won’t find straight next to touristic Levi.
You’ll watch the stars and, with luck, the Northern Lights while lying on reindeer hides on the frozen lake. Inside the cozy cabin, the warm fire and homemade treats make the evening feel personal and welcoming.
The small group, calm pace, snowshoeing option if you want to try walking on the frozen lake, real conversations, and photos taken for you turn this into more than a tour — it becomes a lasting memory, adventure you never forget. It’s the real Lapland: peaceful, magical, and truly local.

What To Expect
This small-group tour, hosted by Soma Adventures — a truly local family business — will change the way you see Lapland. Your local guides will pick you up around 9 pm from your accommodation. We’ll travel 40 km from Levi into the wilderness, stopping when we spot something interesting, on our way to the family’s traditional cabin by a remote lake. You’ll arrive to a stunning, light- and noise-free setting that instantly steals your heart. We’ll gaze at the stars and, with luck, the Northern Lights while standing or lying on reindeer hides on the frozen lake. Inside the cozy cabin, we warm up by the fireplace and enjoy homemade pies, fresh marshmallows, and hot berry juice while chatting about auroras and local life. If you like, you can try snowshoeing with a headlamp, and we’ll take photos for you. The tour lasts about 3.5 hours — plenty of time for the sky to shift into magical shapes. Soma Adventures was just selected as Levi Tourism’s Activity Company of the Year 2025 — and you’ll soon see why. <3 We do everything with a full heart, offering truly genuine experiences.

Magnificent Nothern lights experience with an incredible host

5.00What a wonderful experience ❤️ It was a truly unforgettable night. Heli took us in not as "tourists" but literally as friends. It felt nothing short of a cosy intimate evening between friends even though we did not know each other. She welcomed us into her authentic childhood cabin, standing there beautifully a few steps far from an incredible frozen lake. Even though at first we barely could see anything, which is super nirmal in the case of chasing Nothern lights, I personally felt incredibly happy and grateful for the thrilling experience and intimate set. But the end while we were heading back, Heli never stopped looking, and intuitively stopped the car where we had the most amazing show: Nothern lights surrounded us from above with different dancing shades and offered us a spectacular view❤️ Heli thank you so much for sharing this beautiful part of your life with us🌸 Thank you for making making my childhood dream coming true. And thank you for teaching me what the meaning of my nickname in Finnish means. "Soma" I wish you all the best ❤️
Heli the best

Amazing northern lights cabin with Heli

5.00We did the northern lights cabin trip with Heli, and it was the absolute highlight of our time in Finland. Heli is one of the best guides we've ever met, and showed us incredible hospitality! We loved visiting her lakefront cabin and hanging out in the Kota. When we arrived at the lake, the lights were incredibly strong and we got to see every color and formation. The lights even moved in a spiral directly overhead for an absolutely surreal experience. The sausages, berry juice, and cake in the Kota were delicious, and we really felt welcomed. On the drive to and from the cabin we also stopped to see the lights from other angles. This is an absolute must do excursion for anyone visiting Levi, thank you again Heli!!

5.00Phenomenal!!! Heli is a wonderful, caring and welcoming host and also very informative. We had the most incredible night and were lucky enough to witness an absolutely spectacular display of dancing Northern Lights, viewed from the middle of the frozen lake. Heli also showed us how to adjust the exposure time on our iPhones to get the best photos and also took photos of us as a couple. The hut was warm and so cosy, with a fire and snacks to warm us in between visits outside to check the progress of the lights. Thank you so much, Heli, for your hospitality and friendliness 🙏

5.00Heli was amazing we had a wonderful time with her! 💯 recommend this tour. It was very authentic, private, unique, and we got to see amazing northern lights along the way. Heli didn’t hesitate a second to stop the car for us whenever we spotted something in the sky on the way to the cozy cabin and on the way back. She took a lot of pictures for us and prepared us some snacks next to a warm fire where we also tasted her homemade berry juice and marshmallows! All in all we would do it again with eyes closed. Thank you Heli for a memorable night ❤️

4.00We saw the lights, but it was an old van. Service could have been better, as the guides where chatting between themselves a lot of the time.

5.00What a wonderful evening we will forever cherish. Heli is punctual, professional, friendly, welcoming and hugely knowledgeable about Finland and its people and places. We enjoyed a calm drive for about 45 minutes to in a clean and spacious and warm taxi. We stopped a couple of times to check the weather as the forecasts have been off. Arriving at the lake and house was magical and the food, hospitality and sharing of information was truly fantastic.
