Aakanksha Monga Shares Her Magical Midnight Sun Experience in Norway

If you've ever wondered what it's like to stand under a bright sky at 2 AM, Aakanksha Monga, a travel influencer with a knack for unique adventures, brings you a surreal story from Norway—a country where the sun shines even at midnight during summer. Her experience captures the wonder of nature's quirkiest phenomenon: the Midnight Sun.

Welcome to the Land of Eternal Daylight

In Northern Norway—especially above the Arctic Circle in Tromsø, the Lofoten Islands, and Nordkapp—the sun simply doesn't set from late May to late July. The Earth's tilt during this period means the sun never dips below the horizon, resulting in 24 hours of daylight. It's a strange feeling—your body says sleep, but the sky says adventure.

Best Time to Witness the Midnight Sun

If you want to experience this for yourself, plan your trip between June and mid-July. The skies remain beautifully lit, creating the perfect backdrop for late-night hikes, fjord views, and dreamlike photography.

Norway on a Budget? Try Wild Camping

Aakanksha also shares a clever travel tip: wild camping is legal and free across much of Norway. You can pitch a tent in nature (away from private homes), soak in the stunning views, and sleep under a sky that never dims.

This way, you explore one of the world's most expensive countries without burning a hole in your wallet.

A Must-Add to Your Bucket List

Waking up to fjords, forests, and endless daylight is something photos can't quite capture. Aakanksha urges fellow travelers: if Norway is on your travel bucketlist and you wish to experience Midnight Sun then plan your trip in summer as it isn't just a sight—it's an experience that stays forever.
