Special tips
If you’re visiting Lapland from a warmer region, keep these tips in mind to enhance your experience:
- Preparing for cold weather: The temperature difference can be significant, especially in autumn when the weather can be cool and damp. Make sure to dress warmly—layering is key for comfort. You’ll also need a waterproof jacket and sturdy shoes to keep your feet dry and warm.
- Shorter days: In autumn, the days grow shorter rapidly, and daylight hours are much fewer than you might be used to. Plan your day trips and activities to make the most of the available daylight.
- Cooking and local delicacies: If you plan to cook in your Kotimaailma apartment, we recommend trying local ingredients. Rovaniemi has several excellent grocery stores where you can buy reindeer meat, salmon, and local berries. We can also recommend restaurants where you can savor traditional Lappish cuisine.
- Cultural differences and customs: Finland is deeply connected to nature, and this respect is reflected in daily life. Remember to honor local customs, such as preserving nature’s peace and quiet. Our customer service can help you understand these cultural nuances better.
- Healthcare and safety: Rovaniemi is a safe travel destination, and healthcare is of high quality and easily accessible.
