For travelers heading this far north, the aurora is often the first reason they start looking at flights, and Svalbard turns out to be one of the better places in the world to wait for it. Sitting at 78 degrees north, the archipelago spends a long part of the year in deep darkness, and that darkness is exactly what the aurora needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has--font-size has-theme-palette-3-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-2\">When to come<\/h5>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading324871_484b40-39_0, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading324871_484b40-39_0[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading324871_484b40-39_0\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading324871_484b40-39_0 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading324871_484b40-39_0[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading324871_484b40-39_0\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading324871_484b40-39_0 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading324871_484b40-39_0[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading324871_484b40-39_0\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading324871_484b40-39_0 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading324871_484b40-39_0\">The aurora season in Svalbard runs roughly from early October to late March, when the nights are long and dark. The most reliable stretch is the polar night, which lasts from around mid-November to the end of January. During these weeks, the sun stays well below the horizon around the clock, so the sky is dark enough for the Northern Lights to appear at any hour, not only late at night. Svalbard is also one of the few inhabited places where you can sometimes see the aurora in the middle of what would normally be daytime, simply because there is no daylight to wash it out.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-row-layout-id324871_7003a2-c2 > .kt-row-column-wrap{align-content:start;}:where(.kb-row-layout-id324871_7003a2-c2 > .kt-row-column-wrap) > .wp-block-kadence-column{justify-content:start;}.kb-row-layout-id324871_7003a2-c2 > .kt-row-column-wrap{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);row-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-md, 2rem);padding-top:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);padding-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);grid-template-columns:repeat(2, minmax(0, 1fr));}.kb-row-layout-id324871_7003a2-c2 > .kt-row-layout-overlay{opacity:0.30;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kb-row-layout-id324871_7003a2-c2 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:repeat(2, minmax(0, 1fr));}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kb-row-layout-id324871_7003a2-c2 > .kt-row-column-wrap{grid-template-columns:minmax(0, 1fr);}}<\/style><div class=\"kb-row-layout-wrap kb-row-layout-id324871_7003a2-c2 alignnone wp-block-kadence-rowlayout\"><div class=\"kt-row-column-wrap kt-has-2-columns kt-row-layout-equal kt-tab-layout-inherit kt-mobile-layout-row kt-row-valign-top\">\n<style>.kadence-column324871_e566ad-77 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column324871_e566ad-77 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:0px;}.kadence-column324871_e566ad-77 > .kt-inside-inner-col{column-gap:var(--global-kb-gap-sm, 1rem);}.kadence-column324871_e566ad-77 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;}.kadence-column324871_e566ad-77 > .kt-inside-inner-col > .aligncenter{width:100%;}.kadence-column324871_e566ad-77 > .kt-inside-inner-col:before{opacity:0.3;}.kadence-column324871_e566ad-77{position:relative;}@media all and (max-width: 1024px){.kadence-column324871_e566ad-77 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}@media all and (max-width: 767px){.kadence-column324871_e566ad-77 > .kt-inside-inner-col{flex-direction:column;justify-content:center;}}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-column kadence-column324871_e566ad-77\"><div class=\"kt-inside-inner-col\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"512\" src=\"http:\/\/gjestehuset102.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/tn_Snowmobile-Northern-Lights-Aurora-Borealis-Snowscooter-e1630861905966-1030x512.jpg\" alt=\"tn Snowmobile Northern Lights Aurora Borealis Snowscooter\" class=\"wp-image-280804\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">One of the trips you can do during the polar night is a snowmobile trip to chase the Aurora.

By then a little daylight has returned, the temperatures are often a touch milder, and the combination of bright days and dark, aurora-friendly evenings makes for a comfortable trip. If you want the deepest darkness, come in <strong>December or January<\/strong>.

Longyearbyen is small, and there is very little light pollution, so on a clear night, you may see the green ribbons from the edge of town. Our location up in Nybyen, at the quiet top of the valley, sits away from most of the town lights, and we have had guests step outside Gjestehuset 102 for some fresh air and end up standing in the snow with their heads tilted back.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading324871_69cc5a-26_1, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading324871_69cc5a-26_1[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading324871_69cc5a-26_1\"]{font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading324871_69cc5a-26_1 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading324871_69cc5a-26_1[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading324871_69cc5a-26_1\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;-webkit-box-decoration-break:clone;box-decoration-break:clone;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading324871_69cc5a-26_1 img.kb-inline-image, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading324871_69cc5a-26_1[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading324871_69cc5a-26_1\"] img.kb-inline-image{width:150px;vertical-align:baseline;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading324871_69cc5a-26_1 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading324871_69cc5a-26_1\">If you want to improve your chances, heading out of town helps.
