Rovaniemi is a town in northern Finland, the capital of Finnish Lapland.
Contents
Hitching out
South toward Kemi, Tornio-Haparanda, Oulu E 75
From the city centre, walk south along the street Valtatie (which is also the north-south highway). Pass the Shell petrol station and the railway tracks, and then hitch from the first bus stop. Waiting times may be long, as most of the traffic is local, but you are in the right place to get a long-distance lift south from drivers coming from Rovaniemi or northern Lapland.
North towards Inari, Kemijärvi, Ivalo, Russia E 75
You can stand on any of the bus stops on the National Highway 4 (Sodankylantie). One such stop is just before the Santa Claus village - get there by 40min walk from the city centre, by bus 8 (walk back from the Santa village towards town) or by flying reindeer.
