Northern Lights Travel Guide

Northern Lights: A Practical Travel Guide is the updated fourth edition of Bradt’s practical guide to the best places to view the Northern Lights.

Designed for the many people who dream of witnessing this spectacle, it remains the only guidebook to provide detailed treatment of optimum locations across North America (Canada, Alaska), Greenland and Europe (Sweden, Norway, Finland and Iceland) while also covering practicalities, with this edition providing greater detail on a wider range of accommodation options, from budget hotels to Sweden’s spectacular ICEHOTEL, built each year from river water before melting in spring.

The Northern Lights are one of the world’s most spectacular natural phenomena, arguably the greatest light show you’ll ever see. They are also one of the major tourist draws of the Arctic and sub-Arctic winter.

This book covers information on everything from how to photograph the aurora to what to wear, and how to understand northern lights forecasting, as well as the science behind the aurora and the auroral oval.

Bradt’s Northern Lights is the only guidebook that caters to the large number of people whose dream is to see the aurora borealis.
