The most spectacular phenomenon on Earth, the aurora borealis, will embrace you in all its majesty during this aurora borealis package on Blachford Lake. With included flights from Yellowknife and all meals provided, along with robust facilities ranging from hot tubs to large viewing decks, every need is catered to. Daily activities and unique interpretive crafts and experiences are a perfect match with nightly aurora viewing.
Accommodations include five lodge guest rooms, each boasting views of Blachford Lake. The lodge provides various guest facilities, including free wireless internet, a hot tub, a sauna, and an Aurora-watch wake-up service. Notably, the main building has running hot water, showers, and comfortable hotel-style toilets, uncommon for a remote lodge. Guests can relax in the outdoor hot tub, cedar wood sauna, or visit the tipi for a unique outdoor experience with bonfires and aurora sightings. The dining experience features Northern favourites with fresh seasonal ingredients, including vegetables grown in the lodge's organic greenhouse.
Plenty of activities are available at the lodge, providing the opportunity to use seasonal equipment such as snowshoes, cross-country skis, skates, or ice-fishing equipment (winter season), as well as canoes, SUPs, fat tyre bikes, kayaks, hiking trails, fishing excursions, and motorised boats (fall season). Daily interpretive experiences are also included.
Each night after dinner, find your spot for aurora viewing. The choice is yours: view from the special decks around the lodge, the frozen lake for a spectacular 360-degree panorama, from a traditional tipi, gather around a campfire, or even enjoy the view from your bed or the outdoor hot tub.
