The Northern Lights create a celestial dance across the skies that can be seen in all its glory in certain parts of the Northern Hemisphere. Remote and often at the mercy of the stark winter weather, destinations with dark skies like the city of Reykjavik are the gateway to the endless skies that come alive during the winter months.
