Finland's northernmost municipality on the Norwegian border — about as far under the oval as Finland reaches.
At 69.9° geographic latitude, Utsjoki sits under the auroral oval: aurora is possible on any clear, dark night, even at Kp 0–1.
The northern aurora season runs from late August to mid-April, when nights are long enough to be truly dark. Around midwinter the sky can stay dark almost all day; in high summer the midnight sun makes viewing impossible.
