What is the best place to see the aurora? Where can I often see the aurora?

Scenes like the aurora are really attractive. Many people may just bump around for the aurora. After all, seeing the aurora depends on the weather. Today, Bian Xiao will tell you where, when and how the aurora should be seen.

Aurora can be observed near the Arctic Circle, and the north of the Arctic Circle is the best. The first place recognized in Europe is Tromso, Norway. )

And Iceland. But there is no direct flight between Norway and Iceland to China, so the traffic is a little inconvenient.

The second place is Norwegian Bode (Bod? ) and rovaniemi, Finland

(rovaniemi), also because of traffic problems, rovaniemi, who only needs to change at least once, won. OunasvaaraMountain, rovaniemi.

Stay away from the light interference and look up at the sky in an unobstructed view, which is an excellent place to watch the aurora. A little further, Pihai-Losto National Park (Pyh? -LuostoNationalPark)

It is more suitable for people with hiking experience.

If sure, northwest Kilpisjarvi (Kilpisj? Rvi) Utsjoki is even farther north.

It is a good place to observe aurora in Finland. In the aurora season, you can see the aurora for three days in four days. But the supporting facilities and services may not be as good as those in rovaniemi.

When you look at the Arctic Circle and its north, you can see the Northern Lights from September to the end of April. The darker and clearer the sky, the greater the probability of seeing it, so try to stagger the full moon and rain and snow on the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar. Many people mistakenly think that winter is the best time to watch the aurora, but in fact, in Finland, autumn and spring are the best observation seasons, especially from 10 to1and the following March.

The best observation time is 165438+ 0 pm to 2 am the next day. Because of uncertainty, tourists usually wait from 10 in the afternoon until 4 am the next day. According to local experience, if you don't see the aurora, you can wait an hour or two longer, which will naturally reward those who have patience.

Can aurora be predicted? You can check the KP index for the next 27 days on NOAA website. The large number indicates that the aurora can be seen in the south; A small number means you need to go north to see it.

In rovaniemi, aurora is usually seen when KP index is 1. In Tromso, aurora can be seen when KP index is 0, and almost when KP index is 1~2. In Helsinki, the KP value needs to reach 4 to see it. So in the same place, the greater the KP index, the greater the probability of seeing the aurora. Under the same KP index, the probability of seeing it in the north is greater than that in the south.

There are also time-sharing KP index forecasts for the next three days, aurora forecasts for the next three days and aurora forecasts for the next 30 minutes on this website.

Download some aurora prediction reminder software on your mobile phone in advance, and combine with the weather forecast to arrange the light-chasing trip more reasonably. If the clouds are too thick at night, I suggest you stay indoors honestly.

Traffic tips:

The nearest airport to the resort is Avaro Airport, which takes about half an hour by car. Avaro has flights to Helsinki every day.

Take the bus from rovaniemi to Kakslauttanen Station, about 3 hours' drive, and walk 100 meters after getting off.
