The Northern Lights are visible most of the year I think it’s over 250 nights of the year. It all depends on the weather. When we were there the northern light alert went off at our hotel but it was so cloudy we couldn’t see anything. Good luck.
Hi! Since a year has passed, I am re-asking the same question - if there are lockers (for big luggage) at Arktikum Museum? As Arktikum is my last stop before I catch my train in the evening.
A:
Hello! There are open shelves for large bags and suitcases. It seems that everything is well preserved
We are planning to visit on 6 December, and we understand that it also happens to Independence Day in Finland. So we are wondering if the museum will be open. Thank you
A:
According to their website it will be open daily excluding only Christmas Eve.
