Finland Ukko-Luoston Maisematupa, Luosto-Pyhä National Park
The Scienic hut at the top of Ukko-Luosto is the perfect place for Northern Lights encounters. Inside, the hut is furnished in fine wood and offers a warm place to escape the cold. When the northern lights come out, the surrounding area offers many great motifs with a great view in every direction.
Photography Tips
Wide angle, most open aperture that is possible, tripod and lots of batteries! Make sure your settings are set to manual focus and look for the right sharpness. The image stabilization on the lens should also be switched off.
Travel Information
From the marked hiking point it takes about 45-60 minutes up to the hut. The trail is also easy to do without snowshoes. You should take hiking poles with you for stabilization. There are also Northern Lights tours up here, which disappear again from 11 pm at the latest. After that, the hut and its surroundings are almost entirely yours. This photo was taken at around 1 am.
