An average Lapland day will provide 4.5 hours of what is termed Graylight (generally between 10.00hrs and 14.30hrs daily Finnish time, although this will vary up to one hour based on location). When the sky is clear this can be clear blue skies with the most amazing colours. Outside of these times it will be as night-time in Ireland, with the exception that as the area is covered in snow, there is a good level of reflection making it possible to see where you are walking. Venues for our day visits to Lapland are accordingly lit naturally using roaring fires and Lappish outdoor candles providing an attractive setting for the events taking place. Indeed if you are particularly lucky you may see the Northern Lights (Aura Borealis) which appear as if a storm in the sky with white red or green lights dancing through the atmosphere.
