The flag of Finland — crisp white with a bold blue Nordic cross — seems made for the north: it evokes snow, sky, ice, lakes. And Finland’s far northern reaches are equally perfect for one of nature’s greatest spectacles. The best place to see northern lights in Finland is Finnish Lapland, especially around remote spots like Kilpisjärvi, Inari‑Saariselkä, Saariselkä, and Enontekiö — places with minimal light pollution and long, clear nights.
