  • Are you thinking about visiting Lofoten in December, but wonder if it's too dark? This video will help you pinpoint some pros and cons of traveling during the low season, what and how dark it gets during a polar night in Lofoten. There will always be something positive and negative about traveling during different seasons, you can experience a winter wonderland with cotton candy clouds, hours of sunsets, and the gorgeous blue hour. But you will also experience the sun being gone and 20H of darkness, rain, snow, and clouds.

    I visited in December, and it was really fun! Saw the Northern lights a bit, mostly behind clouds. Next time tho I will probably go in summer!

      Yes it’s very cloudy, usually it opens up for some time during the day, and it might be northern lights behind! Can’t wait for summer, really looking forward to see the midnight sun, the opposite of the polar night ✨
