Why is the place so special for viewing Northern Lights?


The lodge's latitude, far north under the auroral oval, means frequent, brilliant displays that seem close enough to touch, with colours sweeping and swirling across the vast sky in greens, purples, and pinks. Each season offers its own magic: fall combines the auroras with the vivid autumn landscape, winter offers dark, icy skies for some of the clearest auroral displays, and spring brings the Northern Lights dancing above melting snow and budding trees. Blachford Lake Lodge provides an Aurora Borealis experience like no other, a surreal, unforgettable encounter with nature’s greatest light show.   

Each season offers an unique experience.
