Autoliitto is a small automobile club, with some 90.000 members and therefore we do not have similar systems and travel services as the American or European automobile clubs have. There are many touristic associations and organisations in Finland for incoming tourists, and therefore Autoliitto’s activities are not focused in this area. However, it is useful to know:

ROAD INFORMATION IN FINLAND
The roads are in rather good condition, except maybe in the Northern-most parts. If you want to have a look at the digital map, please visit the web pages of Finnish Road Administration:
Road map of Finland
There you can zoom the parts of the map very closely. In these web pages there is also information about rest service area along the main roads. Additionally, the Finnish Road Administration also shows some traffic flow and weather web cameras in their web site.
The Finnish Road Administration also runs telephone inquiry service for road users in number 0200-2100. During daytimie they serve also in English language.
