Nara, Japan

The autumnal shades that hit the Maple trees in Nara from mid-November to early December are awe-inspiring. So much so that there is even an Autumn Leaves Festival that celebrates the beautiful hues at this time of year. Best views are said to be from Murouji Temple. From December you could even incorporate a daytrip northward to Jigokundani Monkey Park to see Macaques enjoying the hot springs in the snow.
Tromso, Norway

This is quite simply the best place to see the Northern Lights, aka Aurora Borealis in the whole wide world. At 350km north of the arctic circle it is one of the most northerly places to be to witness this natural wonder. Make sure you have travel insurance before you go, especially if you are planning to explore the fjords and mountains of Tromso!
Yukon, Canada

Evoking images of a rugged and back-to-nature way of life, Yukon is the destination of choice for anyone who wants to ditch the intricacies of modern-life and get back to basics with the elements and animals. Husky adventure holidays are just the ticket for this kind of thing – stay in a cabin, look after the pack, and have a go at mushing on freshly fallen snow.
Lapland, Finland
