Abisko and the northern lights
Вставка

- On a cold and clear night, busboy and former wedding photographer Chad Blakley crossed a frozen lake in the very north of Swedish Lapland - coincidentally, making that night the start of Abisko as one of the best places on earth for northern lights.

I visited Abisko in 2014. It is a beautiful & magical place. Looking at the Aurora Borealis is an amazing life experience.
I'm planning my trip to Sweden in February, and a friend who lived there said Abisko is the best place to see the Aurora. So I started looking for more information, and I found this amazing video. Thanks! Just made me even more excited to go there.
Thats so cool 😃 welcome to Swedish Lapland 🤞
The Swedish tourism board owe you for this ❤️
Detta är 100% något jag vill göra i mitt liv. Att åka till Abisko och se norrsken.
So beautiful is my dream live in this local 👏👏
Thank you so much for this wonderful, informative, stunningly beautiful video. I hope to be able to visit someday.
Visited in September 2022. It was fall so the trees were a beautiful mix of yellow red and orange. Stayed for 3 nights. First night was too cloudy to see anything but the second night we got lucky and saw a beautiful display. Make sure to give yourself a few nights just in case weather conditions make it impossible to see the lights on a given night.
Sounds like an awesome memory! Thanks for sharing ❤
Wow, such a beautiful place to behold. I will be there on September 26, 2022 and leave the place on September 27, 2022 for Stockholm. I hope that with my only one night of stay in Abisko Park, I will be able to see the Aurora Borealis. It is only a side trip before I attend a summit in Stockholm. With my short stay and a limited budget, I hope I can try riding as well the reindeer through a sleigh. Who knows, a generous Swedish person can treat me for this once-in-a-lifetime activity, ha ha ha. God permits.
Hi Vladimir and thanks for watching 😀Fingers crossed for the lights on your visit up north .
Will be there in mid March!!
Wonderful video!
I just came from Abisko (Ostra), a very small town where just 70-80 people live. Serene and tranquil with scintilating beauty. Although it was overcast and rainy, so couldnt see the aurora, but the autumn colors were the best, orange and yellow shades everywhere. Magical place!
Autumn in Abisko is just breathtaking 😍
I am planning for this place the whole of 2020, finally in December I have the hope to visit. I would literally cry on seeing the Northern Lights !!
Fingers crossed!
Planning for this November hope i will see it, but any advice how to reach from Gutenberg
Ι have been in Abisko, back in 2016. Did not see the aurora borealis but the place was really amazing. All this nature and calmness, brings you back to nature - nice short documentary
Abisko sure has a special place in out heart as well - with or without the lights 😍. Thanks for watching 🙏
I ll be visiting in november, and had great expetations! lovely video!
Fingers crossed for some amazing auroras in November 🤞thanks for watching 🙏
Good place! i'm here...if i want i can.....
Oh my, I will be in Abisko mid-December 2019 and I hope to witness this amazing phenomenon!
Fingers crossed!
How was it?
Bart Hoogteyling I had an amazing time in Abisko. Rode a snowmobile deep into the Abisko National Park chasing the aurora in -5 degrees cold. After 3 hours no aurora in sight. A little disappointed but hold and behold aurora came out to play as I was reaching the small town where I stayed. Mission accomplished. It will be forever in my mind. Will be back definitely!
@@ezz151 great to hear!! Those are indeed adventures of a lifetime. When are you going again? ;)
Bart Hoogteyling like right now if I could but that’s just a wishful thinking because of Covid as I can’t travel out of my country yet. Can’t afford a private jet !
Thanks! For the nice video, cool and beautiful and heartwarming feelings. Though I'm not sure if I can get answer here, is there high possibility of seeing the aurora if I travel there now, like next week? Thanks in advance.
Thank you! It's hard to tell in advance, but fingers crossed!
ı will go to abisko and kıruna ı am so excite ... Do you suggest me for tour of auro?

The Golden Compass?
Didn't I also spot Nicole Kidman somewhere in there 😄
Such places get ruined with people
Unfortunately you are right. Like Yosemite valley in the summer it's the influx of tourists that make it not worth visiting.
I visited from south Sweden this fall, and though you're by no means alone at the station, the feeling out on the mountain is still serene and not very exploited. One of the more prominent reminders of civilization is the heavy iron ore traffic on the railroad with its path from Kiruna to Narvik hugging the lake - although this predates the sky station by far.
