Imagine standing on a quiet hilltop in the Arctic, surrounded by endless wilderness... and the sun is still shining brightly at midnight. Welcome to summer in Lapland, where the sun doesn’t set—and time feels like it stands still.
The Midnight Sun is a natural phenomenon that occurs north of the Arctic Circle, where the sun stays visible for 24 hours a day. In Lapland, this magical time lasts from late May to mid-July, depending on how far north you go.
You can go hiking at midnight, paddle a calm lake in the golden light, or just sit by the fire and never lose the day. It’s a time of boundless energy and surreal beauty.
The farther north you go, the longer the sun stays up.
Locals often say summer in Lapland is like “living in a dream.” The constant daylight gives you a strange sense of freedom. There's no hurry, no bedtime. Just nature, silence, and light.
The Midnight Sun isn’t just a sight—it’s a feeling. Experience it with Lapland Guidebook and find places where time glows gold.
