AuroraHut Glass Igloo boat - Unique accommodation experience in Finnish Lapland

Regular glass igloos were originally designed for experiencing nature phenomenon such as the aurora borealis and midnight sun through their large scenic windows. But what if a certain nature phenomenon can only be seen in a particular location at a specific time?

movable Northern lights igloo

Jump aboard a mobile igloo boat and experience the year-round natural phenomenon – such as the northern lights in Lapland – closer than ever before. During summer, AuroraHut glass igloo uses its own electric engine to move around lake Ranua and in winter, the igloos can be pulled with an ATV, for example.

Only the sky is the limit for your movable igloo.

Notice! We are at the mercy of the northern weathers. Sometimes there is too much water on top of the ice for the igloos to be pulled in winter, and strong winds in summer can limit movement.

Green and sustainable travel option

AuroraHut glass igloo lets you enjoy the surrounding nature at maximum and with clear conscience.

AuroraHut is a green accommodation option that leaves the surrounding nature untouched both during and after your stay.

Year-round glass igloo accommodation experience

Normal, stationary glass igloos are often thought of primarily as winter-time accommodation options. However, the free-moving and floating AuroraHut glass igloo offers the guest the opportunity for spectacular nature experiences all year round.

Thanks to the freely adjustable temperature (and ventilation), igloos are comfortable to stay in both summer and winter. Because of its free mobility and ability to float, AuroraHut is an ideal partner for both open water and winter holiday adventures in Lapland.

Frequently asked questions

The price of the accommodation includes AuroraHut glass igloo accommodation, buffet breakfast and access to the lakeside sauna for two people.

If you want to stay with us without human contact, you can easily do so by ordering a unique access code for your igloo, with which you can log in and out of the igloo on your own. Breakfast can also be ordered directly in the igloo’s food cellar.

In practice, the free movement of igloos means that igloos can be moved from one place to another all year round. In summer, the AuroraHut moves with its own electric motor or pulled by a boat, and in the winter, the igloo can be moved on the lake, driven by a track ATV, for example.

In the eyes of the law, AuroraHut is a boat, which is why igloos can be temporarily placed in the desired location only with the permission of the landowner.

Each AuroraHut is equipped with an ecological toilet.

Bathrooms are located inside the newer main building of the guesthouse, where we have booked one guest rooms dedicated for our igloo guests. It is also possible to use the bathroom of our lakeside sauna, which our igloo guests can use without an extra charge during their stay. 

AuroraHuts were designed mainly for two people accommodations, but it is also possible to accommodate 1-2 children in one igloo, along with two adults. If your own situation makes you think about the possibilities, feel free to contact our customer service either by phone or e-mail. We are happy to help you book suitable accommodation.

Pets are also welcome to stay in our igloos. We charge an additional fee of € 10 for pets.

During the open water season, AuroraHut is controlled  with a remote control found inside the igloo, the use of which you will receive guidance from the staff of our accommodation.

Check-in starts mainly at 2 pm and ends in the evening. Check-out, in turn, takes place by half a day. However, we are prepared to be flexible when schedules are agreed separately and the situation allows.

We offer the possibility to modify the reservation whenever the situation allows. You can inquire about this possibility either by email or phone. If the booking situation allows for a change, the change is free of charge. It’s worth mentioning that because of the seasonal booking rates, it is not possible to move your booking from one season to another free of charge.

Cancellation is free of charge two weeks before the start of the booking, after which we will charge a portion of the total amount of the booking in increments. You can read more about the booking and cancellation conditions from this link.

Customer testimonials

"We then spent three nights in their Aurora Huts (Igloos) on the frozen lake. The huts are ultra modern and have lots of facilities packed into a small space. A toilet (no shower), two gas cooking rings, a fridge (storage box under the ice), bluetooth speaker, fishing hole, good wifi, efficient and warm heating and chargers for usb."

"The igloo itself is quite compact but had everything we need for our short stay. We especially enjoyed the build in speakers within the igloo that allowed us to add another sensory experience to our stay. Additionally, the opportunity to take the igloo around the lake was an amazing opportunity. We also took a try on one of the many yard games they had available for guests to use. The only minus we had was the small door to enter the igloo as both of us ended up hitting our head to the top of the door frame (though we were actually warned about this as we were shown our igloo)"

"Lovely place to stay in Lapland: we spend one night in one of the Igloos, it is amazing to sleep under the stars (and under the aurora if you are lucky) surrounded by an ice lake (in wintertime). The host family is extremely kind; they offered plenty of activities to do at a very reasonable price. We enjoyed Ice fishing, Finnish sauna, snow mobile, and the best: ICE BATH (they made a hole in the middle of the lake so we could have the real Finnish experience!!"

"We stayed 4 nights in the igloo on the frozen and snowy lake, a real moment of happiness. The igloo is very clean and very well appointed, it has a small kitchen, toilet and table. The unobstructed and unobstructed view is a real added value. The sympathy and availability of the entire team is remarkable. A restaurant is at our disposal, the menu is delicious and the breakfast too. You can also enjoy the sauna, sledges. "

"This place is truly unique, for sure in Finland, probably in the world. Feels like an igloo with all the comfort, and with glass to observe the sky. If you’re ever around, don’t even hesitate and take at least one night !!"
