The Arctic environment in Lapland is an excellent environment for photography, a fantastic way to share the unique real Arctic environment with friends and family that may not have the opportunity to physically experience the Arctic environment. The Arctic environment goes through extreme changes of the seasons, and each season is uniquely stunning to experience.
Summer to autumn experience.
The climate in the Nordic Lapland summer season temperature is temperate for trekking, with open views of rolling tundra hills, bubbling fresh arctic freshwater springs, dríggling creeks, running rivers and calm lakes.
Brilliantly vivid colors of the ground cover in the Autumn season. There is a splash of colors over the landscape, from the conifers and the deciduous trees, various deciduous wild berry shrubs, and the moss-covered ground cover. The autumn colors of Lapland are an array of green, Auburn, blue, orange, red and yellow.
Winter experience
Snow covered winter wonderland, dark days of the midwinter solstice. Calm weather and constant snowfall that may go on for days. Spring season around February opens up with longer days and sunlight. Occasionally completely clear night skies with twinkling stars and at times the ebb and flow of the Northern lights in the freezing black night air. Morning clear blue skies and glistening white snow with a snow crust on top that lasts for several hours.
Spring Season experience
The spring season sunshine is a pleasure to experience while traveling backcountry along rolling hills and tundra mountains.
The summer season is also fantastic in the natural environment, with the new life that springs up from a long cold winter. Bird migration is often a sure sign of the coming summer, also the new growth on deciduous trees that springs up bursting with new life.
