The Midnight Sun is the time of the nightless nights. In Ylläs located north of the Arctic Circle, the midnight sun period lasts from the end of May until the end of July. It is bright day and night! Summer nights are pleasantly cool with average temperature around 15 degrees. Summer nights are not meant to be spent sleeping, but spending time outdoors to explore nature.
If you get not enough from seeing reindeers in nature or even on the yard of Milis Chalet, organise a visit at a reindeer farm!
