Welcome to Kittilä
Here, above the Arctic Circle, you’ll find vast snowy plains, the fiery northern lights and the heartwarming hospitality of Finland. Kittilä is a destination that sparks the imagination — whether you dream of husky safaris, skiing in Levi, or simply relaxing by a crackling fire in a wooden chalet, Lapland truly comes to life here.
Renting a car in Kittilä
A rental car in Kittilä gets you to your destination quickly and comfortably. In winter, rental vehicles are well equipped and suited for snowy conditions.
Main roads are excellently maintained and, even in mid-winter, often easily passable and largely free of snow. On smaller roads, snow can accumulate more, but markings usually remain clearly visible. To drive safely and confidently in these wintry conditions, keep the following in mind:
All rental cars are fitted with winter tyres, and often also with studs for extra grip.
Icy roads can be unpredictable — avoid sudden braking or sharp steering, drive calmly and keep your distance.
Let the car warm up gently. When temperatures are –10 °C or lower, it’s wise to let the engine idle briefly before setting off. This gives the oil and tyres time to reach the right temperature.
See a reindeer warning sign? Slow down. Reindeer roam freely, especially during twilight, and may cross the road unexpectedly. They always have the right of way.
In Finland, driving with headlights on is mandatory at all times — especially important when daylight is limited to just a few hours per day.
Outside major towns, distances can be long and fuel stations rare. Fill up in time to avoid running into trouble.
Pick up your rental car at Kittilä Airport
Several flights from Schiphol Airport land in Kittilä, close to the popular ski resort of Levi. Once you arrive, a rental car is the best way to explore Lapland. Distances are long, but roads are well maintained and clearly signposted — even in winter.
