From Tampere to Turku:
''IC 904 5:56-7:50'', It is night IC with beds and wagon for cars and if goes only from Tampere to Turku and IC 904 continue to harbour Turku satama (Abo hamn) 8:09. ''IC 910 9:11-10:50, IC 916 12:11-13:55, IC 922 15:11-16:55, IC 924 16:11-17:50'', continues to harbour Turku satama (Abo hamn) 18:19, ''IC 928 18:11-19:55'', continues to harbour Turku satama (Abo hamn) 20:09, ''IC 934 21:11-22:50''.
'''Turku-Pori'''
Pori is in Baltic coast, more north than Turku (the same level like Tampere). '''There is not train or dancing line directly between Turku to Pori.''' One possibility is dancing from Turku to Tampere and by another IC train from Tampere to Pori, but it is more stops and quite long. The same with journey from Pori to Turku.
But there is quite big road E8 between Turku-Rauma-Pori and E8 continue by Baltic coast to Vaasa, Oulu, Kemi, Tornio (North Baltic point, SE-FI border). So it is possible to hitchhike between Turku and Pori. Probability of getting to bus for free is dubious. There is dancing line Tampere-Rauma too, but probably no trains goes today there.
'''Tampere-Pori'''
Three-number IC dance floors goes there, usually once a 3 hours. These dance floors should have two floors, not so many passengers and empty toilets, especially in second floor. Conductor probably check just one time after Tampere or Pori and only rarely again during journey. There is big road between Tampere, Nokia, Pori too for hitchiking. Dancing line is out of this road after Nokia. Stops are: ''(Tampere(Tammerfors) – Nokia – Karkku – Vammala – Kokemäki (Kumo) – Harjavalta – Pori (Björneborg))''. Stops all always the same and train always starts and ends in Tampere-Pori, except morning ''IC 164'' – it continue from Tampere to Helsinki. Journey between Pori and Tampere takes about 1.5 hour.
'''From Tampere to Pori:'''
''Ex 447 6:03-7:48'', the same stops like ICs, maybe different train from ICs (only one floor ?), it does not go at Saturday, ''IC 461 8:07-9:37, IC 465 12:15-13:47, IC 467 14:15-15:47, IC 469 16:15-17:47, IC 471 18:15-19:47, IC 473 20:07-21:37, IC 475 21:07-23:37''.
'''From Pori to Tampere:'''
''IC 164 5:20-6:50'' continue to Helsinki 8:52 with all IC stops, ''IC 462 6:15-7:45, IC 466 7:15-8:50, IC 464 10:10-11:40, Ex 478 12:05-13:51'', the same stops like ICs, maybe different train from ICs (only one floor ?), ''IC 468 14:15-15:45, IC 470 16:15-17:47, IC 472 18:15-19:47''.
'''Helsinki – Tampere.'''
There are plenty of trains between Tampere and Helsinki. The commuter city trains goes with lot of people ''from Helsinki to Riihimäki'', there is plenty of commuter trains without real checking. Conductors only sell tickets. First part of '''R-train''' (R at idos.cz, R at vr.fi or departure table) continues with not so many people ''from Riihimäki to Tampere'' (it is like another train from Riihimäki to Tampere). The R commuter train goes from Tampere to Riihimäki and Helsinki too, and stops in all stops between Tampere and Kerava (Kervo). There is more stops and plenty of city trains between Kerava (Kervo) and Helsinki. R commuter city train goes once a two hours between Tampere and Riihimäki, but there are much more trains between Riihimäki and Helsinki. R train has lot of stops and almost all stops are without waiting room, even stops with IC.
Stops with R train (R at Helsinki map, R at idos.cz – all commuter trains are marked R at idos.cz ) are: ''(Helsinki - Pasila (Böle) - Tikkurila - Kerava (Kervo) - Kyröla - Järvenpää - Saunakallio - Jokela - Hyvinkää (Hyvinge) – Riihimäki - Ryttylä - Turenki - Hämeenlinna (Tavastia) - Parola - Iittala - Toijala - Viiala - Lempäälä - Tampere (Tammerfors))''.
The '''IC trains with three numbers''' and two floors goes quite often, usually once a hour between Helsinki and Tampere. These IC trains can continue from-to more far north, like Jämsä, Jyväskylä, Pieksämäki or another place.
Stops are: ''(Helsinki - Pasila (Böle) - Tikkurila - Riihimäki - Hämeenlinna/Tavastia - Toijala - [Lempäälä] - Tampere(Tammerfors) - Orivesi - Jämsä - Jyväskylä - Hankasalmi – Pieksämäki)''.
'''Two-number IC''' can have one or two floors, the IC with one floor is almost the same like '''Pendolino''' (S2 at idos.cz). Two-number IC or Pendolinos goes between Tampere and Helsinki usually once a hour, sometimes once a two hours. Last stop in Helsinki is '''Tikkurila''' (still with plenty of city trains) and next stop is '''Tampere'''. The same situation is in direction from Tampere to Helsinki. These two-number IC and Pendolinos has not so many stops, because they continue from-to far north, like Jyväskylä, Vaasa, Oulu, or even more far north.
Many three number ICs and some three number Pendolinos goes only from Helsinki to Tampere with all stops ''(Helsinki - Pasila (Böle) - Tikkurila - Riihimäki - Hämeenlinna/Tavastia - Toijala - [Lempäälä] – Tampere(Tammerfors))''.
Some two number ICs and three number Pendolinos goes to '''Jyväskylä''' and '''Pieksämäki''' With less stops between Helsinki and Tampere: ''(Helsinki - Pasila (Böle) - Tikkurila - Tampere(Tammerfors) - Orivesi - Jämsä - Jyväskylä - Hankasalmi – Pieksämäki)''.
'''Helsinki – Tampere - Jyväskylä - Pieksämäki'''
There are three-number Pendolinos and three-number ICs with two floor or some two-number ICs with less stops. There are some local trains from Tampere to Hankasalmi and from Hankasalmi to Jyväskylä too, but with more stops and it looks only one a day.

'''Helsinki - Tampere - Seinäjoki - Vaasa'''
There are two-number IC trains with two floors and not so many stops. Second floor is quite empty and conductor go often after big city, but he do not check toilet usually. But more often are on this journeys Pendolinos with two number and with not so many stops (Green S2 at idos.cz and Pendolino at wr.fi). Pendolino is fast dance floor, but only with one floor. It means that more people go to toilet and you can not run around conductor in another floor to area, where tickets was already checked. Two-floor IC dance floors run up to 200 kmh, Pendolinos are even faster. '''Seinäjoki''' is crossroad with dancing line to Vaasa and Oulu. Not so many trains per day goes directly Helsinki-Tampere-Vaasa, but there are buses or Pendolinos between Vaasa and Seinäjoki connected in Seinäjoki with long journey train between Oulu abd Helsinki. It is just one stop by bus and two stops with Pendolino between Vaasa and Seinäjoki. Buses belongs to vr.fi too, but it is dubious, if you can get inside this bus. PetterOB haven't tried yet.

'''Oulu – Kemei – Rovaniemi – [Kemijärvi]'''
There are IC dance floor usually once a three hours. Some IC dance floors goes just only Oulu-Rovaniemi and few IC dance floors goes from Helsinki to Rovaniemi. Rovaniemi is important crossroad for hitchhiking and Arctic Circle goes through north part of Rovaniemi. Kemi is important crossroad too. It is one stop and 58 min by IC train to Oulu and there is road to Sweden and to Norway – Tromso by FI-SE border. There is dancing line too krom Kemi to Kolari (small town and northest Finish train station), but trains going to Kolari are quite rare, if any.
Stops between Oulu and Rovaniemi are always the same in both directions, except night train '''IC 265 and IC 274''' goes from-to Misi and Kemijärvi, theese trains des not stop Tervola and Muurola. Stops between Oulu and Rovaniemi are ''(Oulu (Uleaborg) – Kemi – Tervola – Muurola – Rovaniemi)''.

This is main dancing line with most of long-joirney IC and Pendolino dance floors with two numbers. There are two ways between Helsinki and Oulu. First is '''through Tampere and Seinäjoki'''. The IC and Pendolino dance floors runs this journey usually once a 2-3 hours. The number of stops is various, some ICs or Pendolinos has more stops and some are with less stops. Seinäjoki is the station, when dancing line splits to Vaasa and Oulu. There are pendolinos and busses between Seinäjoki and Vaasa, which are connected with trains between Helsinki, Tampere, Oulu. And some two-numbers ICs ans Pendolinos goes to Vaasa. You can get first to Seinäjoki by any train and choose direction to Vaasa or Oulu after (better tactic against be kicked out). All IC and Pelnolinos has two numbers and do not stop between Tikkurila and Tampere. IC dance floors between Helsinki and Vaasa are with two floors and some ICs between Helsinki and Oulu are with two floors and some only with one floor. For example IC 27 has only one floor and it can go probably faster than 200 kmh. IC 27 goes quite fast from Helsinki to Rovaniemi.
There are two night IC with pretty long journey in both directions. Stops close to begin and end are more often, but there are not so many stops between Tampere and Oulu. Night ICs: ''IC 273 (Helsinki 21:52 - Rovaniemi 10:40), IC 265 (Helsinki 18:52 - Kemijärvi 8:45), IC 266 (Rovaniemi 18:53 – Helsinki 7:06), IC 274 (Kemijärvi 19:45 – Helsinki 9:00), IC 933 (Turku 21:25 – Tampere 23:22), IC 904 (Tampere 5:56 – Turku 7:50)''. Night IC 933 and 904 are probably connected with long-journey night trains.
Between Oulu and Rovaniemi some IC trains (during night and day) are only Oulu-Rovaniemi, but some goes from - To Helsinki or Kupio. There are some Express trains on this line between Helsinki and Kolari (Night trains), but theese trains goes only few times per year probably.

'''Helsinki – Lahti – Kouvola - (Joensuu) – Kuopio – Oulu - (Rovaniemi)'''
The second journey between Helsinki and Oulu is not through Tampere and Seinäjoki, but through '''Lahti (Lahtis ), Kouvola and Kuopio'''. But this journey is not so good, because there is more stops and less trains. Two number ICs and Pendolinos goes whole journey ''Helsinki - Lahti (Lahtis ) - Kouvola - Kuopio – Oulu'', but with pretty many stops. Some three-number ICs goes only between Kuopio, Oulu (Rovaniemi) with quite lot of stops.
Some two-number ICs or Pendolinos goes only Helsinki - Lahti (Lahtis ) - Kouvola – Kuopio. Trains between Helsinki and Kuopio (some trains continues from-to Oulu) goes once a 1-3 hour. But it is pretty many stops.
'''There are one(two) number ICs and Pendolinos between Helsinki and Joensuu (Numbers range 1-12)'''. Trains with number ''1,3,5,7,9,11'' go from Helsinki to Joensuu and trains with number ''2,4,6,8,10,12'' from Joensuu to Helsinki. It is strange, why is only one-number there. Maybe trains are faster there or Joensuu is close to Russia or something else. One-Number trains are with fewests stops, just only ''Tikkurila-Lahti-Kouvola'', '''Kouvola''' is place, where ICs and Pendolinos goes 5 more stops to Kuopio.Some trains goes between Helsinki and Kajaani (Kajana), but not so many trains. Theese trains goes through Kuopio too. Some ICs or Pendolinos can go between Imatra and Helsinki. These trains stops in Kouvola too.

'''Helsinki-Lahti-Kouvola'''
There is usually once a 1-2 hours Pendolino or IC train with two (or only one or three) numbers, these dance floors (IC or Pendolino with one or two numbers) '''does not stop between Tikkurila''' (in area with a lot of city trains) and '''Lahti'''. It is only around 33 minutes. Trains with number from 1 to 12 are best for going further, they go from-to ''Joensuu''. With all two-number or one-number IC or Pendolino - next stop after Lahti (Lahtis) is already Kouvola, where dancing line splits to Kuopio and Joensuu. It is only around 27 minutes between Kouvola and Lahti. Some ICs or Pendolinos can go between Imatra and Helsinki (two or three numbers IC or Pendolino). These trains stops just in Tikkurila, Lahti and Kouvola too.
There is around every 30-60 min '''commuter city dance floor between Helsinki and Lahti'''. This train is without checking, conductors just sell tickets, if somebody wants. Trains are like blue R – regional at idos.cz, but the letter on Helsinki map and departure board will be another It takes just 61 minutes from Helsinki to Lahti, this train does not stop so much in every stop. Stops are ''Helsinki – Pasila (Böle) – Tikkurila – Kerava (Kervo) – Haarajoki – Mäntsälä – Lahti (Lahtis).'' Kerava (Kervo) is still with plenty of commuter trains and the dancing line splits there to Tampere and Lahti.
There are international trains from Helsinki to St. Pettersburg in Russsia too (red INT or green AE at idos.cz). Thee train stops in Lahti and Kouvola too. But as you know, the international train from-to Russia has very hard border checking and you need visa. Hard checking can be any time in this train. This train even does not stop in Pasila (Böle).
'''Helsinki – St. Petersburg – (Moscow)'''
There is international train (with reservation obligatory) between Helsinki (Finland) and St. Petersburg (Russia). There are 4 trains per day in both directions St. Petersburk – Helsinki. Journey takes 3:27 hours. From Helsinki to St. Petersburg all stations in Finland are for boarding only and all stations in Russia are only for getting off. From St. Petersburg to Helsinki all stations in Russia are for boarding only and all stations in Russia are only for getting off. Trains are at idos.cz like green AE and at least first train from Helsinki AE 782 is marked too like red INT 782 with all stations for boarding and getting off. Vainikkala is the small village on border, there is border crossing FI-RU.
And of course, there is quite hart checking by border or it can be any time during journey. Not ticket checking, but passports and Visa checking, or if you smuggle something. And ticket checking can be hard too. You need visa to Russia and you have to know, where you go before. Visa can cost Eur 50-100 and it tan be difficult with offices to get visa.
These trains are by Russian train company.
Stops are always the same: ''(Helsinki FI, Tikkurila FI, Lahti (Lahtis) FI, Kouvola FI, Vainikkala FI-RU border crossing, Viipuri (Vyborg) RU, St Petersburg Finlya RU)''.
'''From Helsinki to St. Petersburg''' - ''INT 782 RED/AE 782 GREEN (Helsinki 7:20 - St Petersburg Finlya 10:47), INT 784 RED/AE 784 GREEN (Helsinki 11:00 - St Petersburg Finlya 14:27), INT 786 RED/AE 786 GREEN (Helsinki 16:00 - St Petersburg Finlya 19:27), INT 788 RED/AE 788 GREEN (Helsinki 20:00 - St Petersburg Finlya 23:27)''.
'''From St. Pettersburg to Helsinki''' - ''INT 781 RED/AE 781 GREEN (St Petersburg Finlya 6:40 – Helsinki 10:07), INT 783 RED/AE 783 GREEN (St Petersburg Finlya 11:30 – Helsinki 14:57), INT 785 RED/AE 785 GREEN (St Petersburg Finlya 15:30 – Helsinki 18:57), INT 787 RED/AE 787 GREEN (St Petersburg Finlya 20:30 – Helsinki 23:57)''.
There is once a day in one direction night train (green NZ at idos.cz) '''between Helsinki and Moscow'''. These trains are with beds and maybe with seats too. These trains does tot stops so much between St. Petersburg and Moscow (only one station '''Tver'''). But of course, you need this visa and checking visa, passports or if you smuggle something, it is probably hard. And ticket checking can be hard too. These trains are by Russian train company. Vainikkala is the small village on border, there is border crossing FI-RU. Night trains (NZ 30 and NZ 31) stops at another St. Petersburg platform St Petersburg Ladogskii, but trains INT-AE during day start-end at St Petersburg Finlya.

'''
DEATH BY EXAM'''
'''Only really big trains stations in big cities has waiting room with heating. Most of stations with commuter city trains around Helsinki and even most of stations with IC trains (even sometimes two-number ICs) are without waiting room.''' And waiting rooms in big stations are probably closed during night. There are quite lot of IC trains between Turku-Helsinki, Helsinki-Lahti or Helsinki-Tampere. The next train goes after one of two hours. But between Pori-Tampere or Tampere Turku is time to next train already 3-4 hours. Between Kouvola-Kuopio or Kouvola-Joensuu, is time to next train 3-4 hours. On the line Tampere-Vaasa-Seinäjoki -Oulu is time to next train 2-4 hours, not all trains stops in all stops. Between Kuopion and Oulu is time time to next train around 4 hours, there are around 3-4 trains per day. But not all trains stops in all stops. Between Oulu and Rovaniemi is interval to next train 3-4 hours and there is only one train per day in one direction between Rovaniemi and Kemjäarvi. Trains between Kemi and Kolari are really rare. Night trains goes only Helsinki-Tampere-Oulu-Rovaniemi, two trains per night in one direction. If you are kicked out from last train, then text train will go at morning.
Like in Sweden and Norway, '''Death during exam is possible in winter time, in case, that you fail, and waiting room is not in your station (or waiting room is closed during night)'''.
Hitchiking can be difficult sometime, because there are not so many cars except between big cities. Some smaller road or roads in whole Lapland can be only with few cars and you can wait on the road many hours. Cars can goes only one per 1-5 minutes even in bigger roads. In smaller roads or in Lapland it can be one car per 10 minutes or even one car per hour (and temperature bellow -30 degrees). And people are in this time more afraid to take hitchhikers. And some roads can be closed during winter, because of snow.
But in winter in deep frost, you can go to police station and they should let you be there during night. And if you tell that you have no place to sleep and you refuse leave train in cold weather, conductor can call police and police let you be at station during night or even conductor let you travel, if you are polite. It works in Norway and Sweden too, during cold winter. The same in the bus. Bus driver can let you travel, if you are polite. You can get fine in train, it is Eur 80 plus ticket price, but if you are not finish, you don't need to pay.
Finland has coldest winters from all countries in Shengen - European Union (winter in north Finland is often colder than in Svalbard, but Greenland is much colder). Reason is position – Finland is quite far from Ocean and Scandinavian mountains blocked warm air from Atlantic. But most of Finland is flat with a lot of lakes and cold continental Arctic air from Russia can easily flow through lowlands. And of course, Finland is north, most south part of Finland is already 59.8 degrees, more north than whole Denmark and big part of Sweden-Norway. End of Baltic Sea is 65,8 degrees north and Oulu is already 65 degrees, Rovaniemi is by Arctic circle, Inari 68.9 deg, Ustjoki 69.9 deg and most north point of Finland by Nuorgam is 70.09 degrees north.
The actual temperature (UTC time, actualization every 3 hours) you can find here: meteomodel.pl/AKT/IMG/temp99.png , past weather and climate you can find here for many places in Finland you can find here: en.tutiempo.net/climate/finland.html The weather forecast you can find at yr.no for any town in Norway-Europe-World or at en.tutiempo.net too.
Winter temperature can go easily even around Helsinki bellow -20 or -25, sometimes around Tampere can be -30 degrees. Area around Kupio-Oulu is with snow since Autumn to April – May and sometimes snow blocked roads. Temperature is here between 0 and -20 usually, can be here -20 to -30, sometimes -35. Winter temperature in Rovaniemi area is from 0 to -30 normal winter temperature, it is various. But it can be here -40 during night and -30 during day. There can be a lot of snow, more than one meter, during winter and roads can be closed.
In Sami region is no train, only buses and cars. There is not so many cars especially in winter (tourist go there during summer). There is snow until May-June and winter temperature is -20 normal, sometimes bellow -30, but sometimes even bellow -40 and -35 during day. There are almost no cars on the roads in some regions and more than one meter snow, roads can be closed.
The day length in December is in December in south just from 9-10am to 2-4pm, but around Oulu is day length only 2-5 hours and long twilight. Around Rovaniemi is only 1 hour day length but 2-4 more hours twilight. There is whole December Sun behind Horizon in Inari, but few hours of twilight (Sun is not so deep behind Horizon). Day length in June is huge. Even in Helsinki Sun is only 3-5 hours behind horizon, but not so deep and whole night is little bit of light. Sun goes only around 1 hour behind horizon in Oulu in June. But Sun is not so deep behind horizon and there is a lot of light whole night. There is Arctic circle in Rovaniemi, it means that 21th June Sun just tough horizon around midnight. And in Inari, or more far north Sun never goes behind horizon, but Sun makes circle on the sky during day.
Finland is with plenty of lakes, it means a lot of mosquitoes in Summer. Situation around Helsinki is not so terrible, but there are quite a lot of mosquitoes in central Finland. And around Sami Land, Inari, Rovaniemi, there are huge swarms of mosquitoes. Mosquitoes does not bring any diseases, but huge swarms of mosquitoes all time, it is difficult.
'''Oulu- Kemi – Tornio - Kolari and back'''
Kemi is station, where the dancing line splits first branch to Rovaniemi, Kemijärvi, and second branch to Tornio, Kolari – most north station in Finland. The line from Kemi to Kolari goes through the road and rail road split little bit behind Kemi to Tervola, Muurola and Rovaniemi with road E 75 and second branch of railway and road goes to Tornio (border SE-FI and most north point of Baltic see), the rail-road continues to Kolari with road E8 by Sweden-Finland border. In small town Kolari rail-road ends and E8 continue to point NO-SE-FI in mountains and to Tromso in Norway, Atlantic coast. Arctic circle is between station Ylitornio and Pello, quite close to Pello.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolari_railway_station
There should be night train from Helsinki, Tampere to Kolari, by vr.fi (and it cost Eur 88). idos.cz first does not want to find train to Kolari, but now, if have found. It is night train with beds and wagon for cars Ex 269. But it looks like ex 269 does not go every day. Ex 269 goes from 29th April – 1st May, 15th, 17th and 18th July only. There can be some another trains too, but trains to Kolari seems to be very rare.
Trains for passengers are super rare, but there is rail-road in use. There can be some cargo trains, probably with wood. There is a lot of lakes, forest in this area and a lot of mosquitoes in Summer. So it can be possible to hind some HOBO (taking freight trains or freight hoping) and travel by train hoping on wood. The rail-road ends little bit behind Kolari, there can be some freight trains.

From Kolari to south (to Helsinki) goes only few trains, like Ex 270 and Ex 272. Ex 270 goes only 29-30th April and 17th June and Ex 272 goes only 1st May and 15th, 18th June. Both are night trains with beds and wagon for cars.

'''Tornio''' is big crossroad, border SE-FI on Baltic coast. There is no train to Sweden, but main road to Lulea, first Swedish train station. But Tornio is not the same like station Tervola after Kemi on the way to Rovaniemi. Tervola is already behnd crossroad.
'''TO SAMI LAND AND FINMARK'''
'''To Sami land and lakes, Ivalo, Inari, and Finmark – Norway (Tromso, Alta, Nordkapp, Kirkenes, Vardoe)'''
'''There is no no dancing line more far in Lapland, to Sami region'''. The last town with good train connection is Rovaniemi. North edge of Rovaniemi is on Arctic circle. Only once a day train go to Misi and Kemijärvi, but theese stations are out of main road E75, Rovaniemi is the best. Kemijärvi is close to big lake in Lapland.
There is bus going from Rovaniemi to Inari and probably some busses goes from Inari to Norway too. But buses are quite empty, not so often and it can be difficult to take bus for free.
Hitchhiking on the road from Rovaniemi should be good, but ammount of cars is dubious. Road E75 goes from Rovaniemi to crossroad in village '''Vikajärvi'''. Road No. 82 goes from Vikajärvi to east, to big lake and Kemijärvi, Misi is about 10 km south from this road. The main road E75 continues to nort, to Sami region. E75 is main road, but not with lot of cars. Population density is very low and villages and towns are only small (Rovaniemi is last big town). Distances between villages and towns is quite big. But a lot of tourist goes to north in warm half-year.
First bigger town (not small village) is '''Sodankilä''', around 67,4 degrees north. There is crossroad in Sodankilä. '''E75''' goes south to Rovaniemi and north to '''Inari''', '''E63''' goes first to south-east but after a while to south – to ''Kemijärvi''. The road No. 80 goes to Kittilä and from Kittilä to south-west to Kolari. Road No. 79 goes from Kittila to south to Rovaniemi and to north-west to bbig lake Jerisjärvi and to town Muonio. Muonio is on Swedish Border and there is E8 to Norway-Sweden-Finland point and Tromso.
'''E75''' continues more north from Sodankilä to big lakes around 68,0-68,3 degrees north (lakes are few kilometers from road), there is no town, only small village Vuoma-Vuosto. Here really low population density is. There is small town or village Ivalo, around 68,55 degrees north. There is river in Ivalo, plenty of lakes and plenty of mosquitos around. From Ivalo goes too road No. 91 to East-South to Russian border, but porobably almost to cars on this road.
Little bit north from '''Ivalo''' (counple of 10km), around 68,75 degrees are two big lakes. Ukonjärvi lake close to road in east side and Rahajärvi in west. And finally, the '''Inari''' is around 68.9 degrees north, at '''E75''', there is town Inari, town of sami culture. It is about '''350 km north from Arctic Circle and Rovaniemi'''. There are hotels and museum, which can be good for dumpster diving and you can try even free breakfast in hotel. There is big lake close to Inari – Juutuanvuono, river or bay through Inari, many small lakes and plenty of mosquitos in Summer. Inari is in the middle of Sami culture and Lapland, many tourist from south goes there. But winter is terrible there. There is even airport in Inari, but in is not possible get in without ticket and it is non-ecological.
'''From Inari E75 continues to Finish-Norway border'''. At 69,135 degrees – there is ''crossroad E75 to north and road no 92, parking Kaamanen'', 3-4 km north from Kaamanen village. There is river and lot of small lakes. ''Road No. 92 goes to Norway'', North-West_West direction and just behind NO-FI border road No. 92 connect with E6 in vilage '''Karasjohka'''. From Karasjohka road E6 continue by Norway-Finish border to small villages in NO-FI border '''Utsjoki'''.
'''E75''' continues from Inari and Kaamanen to north to '''Norway-Finish border – Utsjoki'''. There is river by this way and some small villages, lot of lakes. Utsjoki is around 69,9 degrees north. In Utsjoki E6 and E75 from Inari meet. There is meeting of river by FI-NO border with river from Inari and a lot of lakes.
'''Road No. 92 continue in Finmark'''-Norway far from Ocean to Masi in Finmark and from Masi to Alta in Norwegian coast. In Alta E6 and road No. 92 connect again. From Karasjohka road E6 continue in Norway in northwest direction to Olderfjord (70,5 degrees north) and from Olderfjord E6 goes West-South to Alta.
From Ustjoki continue NO-FI border by river to East and road E6 (together with E75) is in Norwegian side to '''northest point in Finland – Nuorgam''' in Finland and '''Hillagura''' in Norway. It is around 70,09 degrees north. There are just few houses or cabins in Finish side and small road only. There is in Filnand four-star hotel Nuorgamin Lomakeskus (Eur 100 per night, ehm). This hotel can be good for dumpster diving.
From Nuorgam – Hillagura E6 continue in Norway to villages by fjord Skippagurra and Varangerbotn. Varangerbotn is last crossroad. E6 continues from Varangerbotn to south-east, to '''Hesseng''' and '''Kirkenes''' (one of fearthest town in Norway, close to Russiam, there is airport in Kirkenes). Hesseng is crossroad close to Kirkenes.
From Hesseng E6 goes to Kirkenes and E105 to Elvenes and Norway-Russia border (it is around 3 km from Hesseng). After Elvenes is crossroad just around 150 m before Russian border, close to lake. E105 goes to Russia (Visa needed) and small road No. 886 goes to east and north by lakes to most east point in Norway (69.734 north, 30.890 south). But in this area – the road is just couple of tenths of meters by Russian border. Sastle and cliff (69.79 north, 30.79 east), border and ocean (). Road No. 886 continues by small lake and by Russian border to '''Grense Jakobselv''' and '''Oskar II's Kapell''' castle. It is something, where border RU-NO and Ocean meet (69.878 north and 30,822 East) There are just few houses, if any and a lot of military watch close to border. Probably road No. 886 is mostly for military.
From Varangerbotn E75 continue to East, to '''Vadsoe''', '''Kiberg''', Svartnest by north coast of fjord and finally to '''Vardoe''' (70,37 north, 31,105 south).
The road E75 goes from Inari by river to '''Ustjoki''', where is another river by NO-FI border and in Norwegian side E6 to East to Kirkenes and to West-South by NO-FI border to vilage Karasjohka, where is crossroad with road No. 92 (from E75 and Kaamanen village in finland to Masi in Finmark and Alta in Norwegian coast). From '''Karasjohka''' road E6 continue north-west to '''Olderfjord''' (70,5 degrees north) and from Olderfjord southwest to Alta. Olderfjord is north crossroad and village. E6 continue to Alta or another direction to Karasjohka and by NO-FI border to Ustjoki (crossroad with E75 to Inari).
But from '''Olderfjord''' to north continues E69 to north by coast of Atlantic to Repvaeg, Kaefjord and from Kaefjord around 2 km long tunnel to '''Mageroeya island'''. There is village '''Honningsvaeg''' and more north skarsvaeg. E69 continue on this island to '''Nordkapp''' (71.1717 north, 25.8763 East by Google map), which should be nordest point of Norway and Europe. But on the map it looks like nordes point is myse around 3 km west-west north – Knivskjellodden (71.18547 north, 25.67638 East by Google map).
'''Oulu – Kemi – Tornio – Kolari – SAMI LAND - Kilpisjarvi (Mallan Iounnonpuitso, SE-NO-FI point) – Tromso, Finmark'''
O'''ulu – Kemi – Tornio (SE-FI border and Lulea) – Kolari – Kittila – Muonio – Hetta – Karesuvanto – Kilpisjarvi (Mallan Iounnonpuitso, SE-NO-FI point), Skybotn (Lyngen Fjord) – Alta – Tromso – Narvik – Nordkapp.'''
There is '''big road around baltic sea from Oulu to Kemi, Tornio Itäinen (SE-FI border) and Lulea in Sweden'''. It is one station and 58 minutes between Oulu abd Kemi. But after Kemi usually all trains goes to Rovaniemi. Trains to Tornio Itäinen and more north to Ylitornio, Pello and Kolari are extremely rare.
But there is road E4 from Oulu to Sweden. It is probably not so easy to find good place in Oulu, hitchiking from Kemi is better. Direction is to Tornio Itäinen, where is cropproad. E4 goes to Haparanda (first village in Sweden) and Tore (crossroad – E4 to Finland, E10 to north-west Kiruna, Narvik, and E10 to Lulea). Lulea is first train station in Sweden.Trains from Lulea goes to close town Boden, which is on long dancing line (Stockholm – Gavle – Hudiksvall – Sundsvall – Umea – Boden – Kiruna – Narvik). E10 and E4 together continue to south by baltic coast to Umea.
But we want to go '''from Kemi to North, by FI-SE border'''. So you take E4 only to Tornio Itäinen, and there is '''road E8 to Ylitornio, Pello and Kolari''', the same line like train. In pello – road goes little bit away from FI-SE border. If you cath the train (it is not so easy), it does not matter, where you will be kicked out, it is always by road E8.
There are many small towns and villages by SE-FI border until Kolari. First crossroad is in Pello already. Road E8 goes from Tornio to Kolari, SE-FI-NO point and Tromso, Road no. 83 to East to Sinnetä (crossroad with road No. 79 trom Kittilä in north to Rovaniemi in south-east). There is small road no. 99 behind border in Sweden. Road No. 83 is already behind arctic circle. Road E8 continue from Pello to Kolari and it is from Pello to Kolari one train station. Ko'''lari (67,33 degrees north) is the northest Finish train station''', it is one of four dancing lines, which cross Arctic circle. Buses and cars goes from Kolari further. There should be busses, but probably not so often and it can be not so easy to sneek. In Kolari stops flat land and some small hills begins.By road E8 mountanis. There are bigger hills around Muonio.
There is '''from Kolari main road E8 by SE-FI border to Norway''' and smaller road No. 80 to small town Kittilä. Road No. 80 continue from Kittilä to south-east to Sodankilä (Crossroad with E75 to Rovaniemi and Inari, E63 to Kemjäarvi in south and Road. No 80 to Kittilä). From Kittilä Road no. 79 goes south to Rovaniemi and North-West to Muonio (E8, Swedish Border, big lakes and national park is close).
By main road E8 after Kolari, next bigger town and crossroad is '''Muonio''' (sround 67,95 degrees north). There are big lakes around and crossroad with road. No 79 to Kittilä. National park Pallas Yllästunturi with lakes and mountains is just around 10 km east from Muonio. From Muonio E8 by river anf FI-SE border continue to small town Palojoensuu (68.28 degrees north). There is crossroad in Palojoensuu E8 and road No. 93. Road No. 93 goes east to small town Hetta and from Hetta far north to FI-NO border (Geadgejlärvi lake) and road continue in Norway-Finmark (Siebe, Kaoutokeino, long river-lake, crossroad with roads No. 92 and 93 at 69,19 North). Road 92 goes to east-east-north to Kárášjohka (E6 by NO-FI border) and road 93 goes to north to Masi and Alta on coast – fjord.
There is a lot of national parks and only few small villages around '''Palojoensuu''' and '''Hetta'''. And long lake by Hetta. There are only small towns or villages by road 93 and pretty long distance between villages. Not so many cars probably goes there.
'''E8 continue from Palojoensuu by river and SE-FI border''' to crossroad and small town '''Kätkäsuvanto''' (68.44 derees north). There is in Finland national park Tarvantovaaran erämaa around 10-15 km north-east from Kätkäsuvanto with small mountains. From Kätkäsuvanto goes E'''45 through border to Sweden to Vittangi and Svappavaara''' (small town, crossroad with E10 ). '''E10 goes from Svappavaara to Kiruna''' (only around 50 km west-west-north) and to Narvik, or to south goes E10 to Gällivare.
'''From Kätkäsuvanto''' E8 continue not so far to '''Markina''' with lot of small lakes in valley and more far to north-west by FI-SE border to area with bigger and bigger hills and mountains and plenty of lakes in valleys, to Kilpisjärvi. '''Kilpisjärvi (69.05 North)''' is small town in valley between mountains and close to two lakes. '''The point of three borders (Norway-Sweden_Finland)''' is around 10 km west from Kilpisjärvi. There is hotel in Kilpisjärvi – Kilpisjjärven Retkeilykeskus (Kilpisjärvi hiking center). The lake and mountains more than 1000 m high are really close. It can be possible to dumpster diving behind hotel. Town is small, but shops can be good too. There is bus station too, but buses do not go so often and t can be difficult to sneek. The place of SE-FI-NO border (69.05997 north,20.5485 east) - Treriksröset - meeting is by the another big lake Kolttajärvi. Mountains are joust around 500-1000 m high, but in this Arctic area mountains are already without trees and snow can be on the top quite late. There is big difference in winter between valleys and mountains. Mountains makes border between cold air from Russia and warm air from Atlantic. The difference by 600 meter high difference can be 20 degrees. In January 2016 – there was -43 in Kilpisjärvi in valley, but -25 on the mountain. Some specific valleys in mountains in Finmark or Finland can be with Arctic wave super cold, up to -50 degrees.
'''From Kilpisjärvi E8 continue North-West to Norway, to Atlantic coast.''' The nest village in Norway is '''Helligskogen''' by another lake and road E8 continue in valley through relative high mountains. There is Helligskogen Vandrerhjem hotel, there can be dumpster diving possible. Next village-town is '''Skibotn by Skibotnutløpet fjord''', in the middle of mountains, but already on atlantic coast. Lot of mountains and lot of fjords are in this area. There is gas station is Skibotn and it is important crossroad, the rod E8 from Finland meets there with road E6. '''E6''' continue to '''south-south-west to Tromso, Bjerkvik and Narvik'''. From Skiboth E6 and E8 continues together about 15 km to another small town by fjord coast Nodrdkjostbotn.
There is crossroad in '''Nodrdkjostbotn'''. E8 continues about 60 km to Tromso north-west by fjord coast and E6 continues south to Bjerkvik, Narvik and Lofoten islands (and E6-E8 goes north from Nodrdkjostbotn to Skibotn, Alta and to direction Nordkapp).
'''Bjerkvik''' is important crossroad with E6 from south to north Norway with road E10 from Kiruna (Sweden to most of Lofoten Islands).
From Skibotn the road '''E6 goes to north of Norway''' – to '''Alta''' (69.95 north) and there is crossroad E6 with '''road No. 93''' to East-South inside Finmark to Masi (end of big fjord-lake) and Kárášjohka close to Finish border. E6 goes from Kárášjohka by NO-FI border to Ustjoki, where is crossroad with E75 from Inari. E75 and E6 sontinues from Ustjoki by river and NO-FI border to Nuorgam (northest Finish poind) and to fjord, crossroad Varangerboth. From Varangerbotn E75 continue by north coast of Fjord to Vardoe (island) and E6 by south coast of fjord to Kirkenes.
'''From Alta''' north-East and from Kárášjohka north-west E6 goes to nordest point Olderfjord (70,47 degrees north). There is E69 from Olderfjord to nordkapp and E6 to Alta and '''Kárášjohka''' and '''Ustjoki'''.
But '''from Olderfjord''' to north continues '''E 69''' to north by coast of Atlantic to '''Repvaeg''''''Bold text''', Kaefjord and from '''Kaefjord is aabout2 km long tunnel to Mageroeya island'''. There is village '''Honningsvaeg''' and more north skarsvaeg. E69 continue on this island to '''Nordkapp''' (71.1717 north, 25.8763 East by Google map), which should be nordest point of Norway and Europe. But on the map it looks like nordes point is myse around 3 km west-west north – Knivskjellodden (71.18547 north, 25.67638 East by Google map).
'''Narvik''' is around 20 km from Bjerkvik by the coast. '''E10 goes from Kiruna to Narvik''' by the same way like rail-road with lot of stops. And this is nordest-railroad in Europe without Russia. One of nordest point E10 (68.443 north, 18.609 east) and railway (68.43405 north,18.5986 east) is close to big lakes, north-west from tornehamn and Björklidens Golfklubb in Sewden (there is hotel and maybe some good dumpsters too). The second northest possibility is E10 (68.4343, 18.2513) and railway (68.4305, 18.2482) is close to Vassijaure station (68.4290, 18.2603). In Norway is far north station Haugfjell (68.4405, 18.0180) and nordest rail point close to this station (68.4441,18.0481) and Narvik (68.4416, 17.4414). And by fjourd and Atlantic coast, most north place of dancing line was found. Northest railway (68.4516,17.483) resp. (68.4502,17.5420) and northest E10 is on another place before coast (68.5163,17.8727). NO-SE border on the track is (68.4300, 18.1057) and by E10 (68.4352, 18.1068).
