Good to know

Roads are narrower than you are perhaps used to so allow more time for driving. Cyclists and motorists share the road, please respect all road users, check your speed and drive with care.

The ferries have some rules:

1. Follow the rules and directions of both crew and traffic signals
2. Don’t leave your car before departure
3. Lock the parking brake, turn off the headlights and stop the engine.
4. Park as close to the car in front as possible so that as many cars as possible can be loaded onto the ferry.
5. Make sure that the vehicle is able to exit, at least from one side.

Make sure your rubbish does not end up in the water or nature. The most common litter on Finnish beaches is plastic and cigarette buts which both break-down to microplastic and end-up in watercourses. It is easy to recycle your waste at sea. At KAT Sälle stations you can recycle glass, metal, and paper. Plastic and compost recycling is increasingly found.

Campfires or other outdoor fires are not allowed during periods of forest or grass fire warnings or when there is an increased risk of the fire spreading due to wind or dry local conditions. Fires are only allowed with the permission of the landowner.
