Driving in Lapland offers a unique experience compared to driving in other parts of the country. The driving style in this region is generally relaxed and courteous, reflecting the laid-back nature of the locals. However, it's important to note that driving conditions can change drastically depending on where you are in Lapland. While major roads and highways are well-maintained and of good quality, some rural and wilderness areas may have narrower roads with gravel surfaces. It's crucial to adhere to the posted speed limits, which are typically lower in residential areas and higher on major roads.

To pick up a hired car in Lapland, you must be at least 18 years old, though most car companies require you to be at least 21 and have had a licence for a year or more. If your licence isn't a local one, bring along an International Driving Permit (IDP) to be safe. If you're under 25, expect to be charged an additional surcharge on top of your hire costs, for being a young driver. You may also be limited to driving a compact vehicle if you're under 25. Make sure you've arranged everything online and bring your confirmation details to avoid any issues. Remember, you'll also need a valid credit card in your name to pay for the car and the security deposit.
