Catching the Light – Dinner withe the Aurora BorealisAn evening snowmobile tour into the dark Arctic wilderness, with dinner in a remote cabin and the chance to witness the Northern Lights

From late January, the polar night starts to loosen its grip – but the Arctic sky remains dark enough for one of nature’s most magical shows: the aurora borealis.

This evening snowmobile trip takes you into the untouched wilderness around Longyearbyen, far away from light pollution. After the ride, we stop for a delicious three-course supper in a cozy cabin, and then continue our journey under the stars – hoping for a glimpse of the northern lights dancing overhead

🌌 Darkness, Silence, and Open Skies

Our route leads through Adventdalen and nearby valleys – ideal places to enjoy the deep Arctic silence and scan the skies for aurora activity.

🍽 Dinner in a Hidden Cabin

Midway through the trip, we warm up in a remote wooden cabin where a hearty, home-cooked three-course meal is served. A moment of comfort and connection, deep in the polar night.

❄️ A True Arctic Winter Ride

Riding a snowmobile in the darkness is a unique experience. The headlight carves through the snowy landscape, revealing wildlife tracks, frozen riverbeds, and the subtle textures of the terrain

We had a great time, the guides were friendly, knowledgable and helpful and the food was delicious!

We went for a snowmobile trip with a dinner in a cozy cabin and it was amazing!
