Polarman's Camp is located approximately 25 minutes from Rovaniemi city centre, in a quiet forest clearing surrounded by Arctic nature. The clearing has minimal surrounding light and a clear view towards the northern sky, creating a peaceful setting for an evening spent watching for the Aurora.
On arrival, the Polarman welcomes the group and introduces the evening. As storyteller and Aurora watcher, he shares stories about the Northern Lights, explains what to look for in the sky and follows the conditions throughout the program.
The evening has a relaxed rhythm. Guests can move between the warm Aurora Dome, the outdoor firepit and the open forest clearing as the sky changes.
Inside the warm Aurora Dome
Inside the heated Aurora Dome, guests settle onto reindeer skins beside the fireplace. The temperature stays at approximately +15°C or warmer, making the dome a comfortable place to sit, warm up and spend time during the evening.
A short Northern Lights film is shown on a large screen, followed by stories and legends about the Aurora. Hot berry juice or the Polarman's special magic drink is served with ginger cookies while the guide keeps watch on the northern sky.
The Aurora Dome remains available throughout the program, so guests can return to the warmth of the fireplace between periods outside.
