Weather forecast
Unlike many other locations, Abisko benefits from the “Blue Hole Effect”, a weather phenomenon that often keeps the skies clear even when surrounding areas are cloudy. This significantly increases your chances of witnessing the aurora, even on nights when the forecast isn’t perfect. Make sure to check the weather forecast before you head out!
