Forest Lagoon & Northern Lights

Experience the magic of North Iceland as you leave the city behind and journey into quiet, dark landscapes just outside Akureyri, where nature sets the stage for one of the world’s most captivating phenomena. Surrounded by mountains, fjords, and open valleys, this adventure offers a peaceful escape into Iceland’s winter wilderness, creating the perfect atmosphere for chasing the Northern Lights under clear, star-filled skies guided by local experts who understand the land and the ever-changing conditions.

Explore the evening further with a soothing visit to the Forest Lagoon, a geothermal spa hidden among trees that invites you to relax in warm, mineral-rich waters before continuing the aurora hunt. As night deepens, carefully chosen viewing locations maximize the chance of witnessing shimmering lights dancing across the sky, while the journey itself—through snow-covered scenery and remote landscapes—becomes a memorable part of the experience, even when nature chooses to remain subtle.
