Reach Rovaniemi, then transfer to Kiruna. On arrival, we continue with our visit to the famous Icehotel in Jukkasjärvi. The story of Ice hotel starts in 1989, when it became the world’s first and largest hotel made of ice and snow in the Swedish village of Jukkasjärvi – 200 km north of the Arctic Circle. It’s also Sweden’s most unique and probably most extensive private art hall. Icehotel is all about ice and creativity – with art as the result. That’s why the artists invited to take part are not required to have worked with ice before -they’re selected from among those who send in their ideas based on originality, and creating it in real natural ice would pose a new challenge. Each year, some 40 artists take part in Icehotel.

The notion that several weeks’ hard work and months of planning and preparation culminate in something that only exists for a few months is, in some respects, a bittersweet feeling. Kiruna, too, has been serving as a prime destination for Aurora Hunting. The clear sky with pristine Taiga Boreal Forests around adds a mystical touch to this place. Post Ice hotel visit, treat your hunger with a hot dinner and spend the night in your hotel under the magical Aurora flashing in the sky. As per the weather forecast, if we are lucky, we may come across a beautiful Aurora shining brightly in the sky with multiple hues and colours.
