We are one of the only accommodations in Norway that, together with our partner Live Aurora Network, both show and alert you when the northern lights are visible at our facility.
Lofoten Links Lodges, Lofoten Links and Hov are 3 of the best places to experience the northern lights in Lofoten from August to April each year. The reason is that we our lodges, golf course and beach look out north, to The Norwegian Sea, with no mountains shielding your view.
There is also no light pollution over the sea in the north, which also provides optimal conditions for experiencing the northern lights. Aurora Borealis, as it is also called, is most often seen in the northern sky, adding to how special our location is.
This is also why Live Aurora Network chose our facilities when they set up their ONLY camera in Norway. The location is perfect, as many of their images they post on their instagram account show:
