We had a great time at Kiilopaa. it was cold -20degC with lots of snow, fresh and powder. We had 2 great shows of Northern lights, each lasting over 1 hour, until our feet were frozen and we had to return to warmth of our cosy cabin. The spectacular dancing green lights were a sight to behold… so close, occupying over half the sky! We had other shorter Northern lights displays as well, one early in the morning..and one we thought was red (not sure)! Your recommendation of the 10person cabin was a great idea as the layout of the cabin was really spacious compared to the 8 person cabin. Lots of other activities organised by the Kiilopaa staff who are very helpful and friendly. The view from the top of Kiilopaa was fantastic as well and we also saw three willow grouses on our last snow shoe walk hours before departure. We will be back again.

Dreadful snow (or lack of), icy conditions and bitter cold, then melt and rain! Only 2 nights in huts; had to snow-shoe instead (and enjoyed that).
But what a great time – it’s the people and company as well as the place. Then Solli helps a lot; it’s comfortable, warm, wonderfully situated, isolated on fjiord shore with astonishing views straight across to Lyngren Alps, but direct bus to door from Tromso – and the food’s great. AND THE NORTHERN LIGHTS! Thanks Jim and Sarah for switching them on so spectacularly.
It would be great to visit at lots of other times of the year; but also to go again at the same time, as the snow would likely be great then too.

Thank you for another amazing trip! It was everything I expect from one of your trips and a lot more. Brilliantly organised and the advice on the different types of expeditions was invaluable. Each day seemed better than the one before with more wildlife and more dramatic and breathtaking scenery.

Thank you again!

Right where can I go next?

Jim’s ski lessons were fab, Sarah’s menu for the week light weight and so tasty, I don’t eat that well at home. I learnt how to build a snowhole, skied in fresh powder and even managed to catch the Annual Sami Reindeer Racing. Great trip, well worth the money. Thank you so much.
