The village of Jukkasjarvi only has about 548 inhabitants. But don’t let the small population size fool you: Jukkasjärvi boasts the world’s first ice hotel and is one of the best regions to view the Northern Lights. Guided tours can be arranged for travelers to visit the Esrange Space Center located 30 minutes from Kiruna where they can dine at a wilderness camp and get the chance to scan the Arctic winter sky for aurora borealis. Northern Lights safaris on snowmobiles for the ultimate Aurora experience in the wilderness can also be arranged. Whether you choose to visit by train, plane, or dog sled, reaching Jukkasjarvi will be an adventure.
