A glass igloo and aurora cabin excursion is a must have experience on your Lapland holiday. Imagine falling asleep under the stars, with the Northern Lights dancing on the horizon. And when you wake, the low winter sun fills the morning sky with a deep blue light. This is a truly unique experience found only in Lapland.
The glass igloos, and glass roof in the Aurora Cabins, are an incredible example of engineering, opening up the beauty and majesty of Lapland's night sky. Thanks to modern technology, we can finally enjoy the stars and the Northern Lights from the comfort of a warm bed, protected from the elements by a thermal glass dome.
The glass is made of a special-make of thermal glass that keeps the inside of the igloo toasty even when the temperature outside drops to a chilly -30c. Inside the glass igloo there is a small living and sleeping space. The bed takes up the centre of the space and from here you can experience a stunning view of the heavens and surrounding frozen landscape.
