Not only in Iceland, but you can also see the beautiful aurora in Canmore!!

Canmore is a small town in Alberta, Canada, located in the Rocky Mountains, and is an excellent location for viewing the aurora. 🕐Best Viewing Time The best time to view the aurora is from mid-August to mid-October and from late November to mid-April each year. Auroras usually appear between 10pm and 2am, and the probability of observation is higher during this period. Choose a clear, cloudless night and pay attention to the aurora forecast to increase your chances of seeing it. 🌍Viewing Locations Choose a location away from city lights, such as the countryside or mountain tops. Local national parks or lakes are ideal viewing spots, offering open views and minimal obstruction. ✅Essential Items Warm clothing: including thick coats, hats, gloves, and scarves to protect against the cold. Camera and tripod: for recording the beauty of the aurora. Snacks and hot drinks: to stay warm and energized while waiting. 🚗Transportation Canmore is about a 1.5-hour drive from Calgary International Airport. Renting a car is recommended for flexible travel arrangements. Local transportation options include taxis or chartered car services. 🏨Accommodation Recommendations Accommodation away from the city center is recommended to reduce light pollution. Choose a homestay or hotel with outdoor space for convenient aurora viewing at any time. Book your accommodation in advance, especially during peak tourist season. ‼️Important Notes Check the weather forecast and aurora forecast in advance and plan your itinerary accordingly. Respect the local environment, keep quiet, and avoid disturbing wildlife. Keep warm and bring necessary protective gear.
