2026 to be peak year for Northern Lights travel

In 2026, the Northern Lights are expected to be more visible and vibrant than they have been in over a decade.

This is because the sun is entering a period of high activity, which makes the lights brighter and more frequent.

Scientists say this peak will happen around 2025 and last into 2026.

Special events called cannibal solar storms can make the lights even more intense, sometimes showing rare colors like pink and red.

Places like Norway, Sweden, Finland, and Iceland are the best spots to see the Northern Lights, especially from September to April.

More people are planning trips to see them, and travel companies are offering special tours, like train rides and cruises, to help visitors have the best experience.
