![]() The northern lights are a natural phenomenon that you can witness at far northerly latitudes. The aurora borealis is unpredictable so even if you search for them during the solar maximum, sightings are not guaranteed. That said, geomagnetic storms can occur at any time, so you can still see the northern lights during the solar minimum stage. When the sun experiences its solar maximum, that means that solar activity is high and more charged particles are released. Some believe that certain periods of the 11-year solar cycle provide a better chance of seeing the aurora light up the sky. Essentially there is no “best year” to hunt for them. You can spot the northern lights any year. Is there a “best year” to see the northern lights?
