This is the information point in Inari. Not only that here you can get some info about Inari and the region, you can also post your postcards from here (it’s the post office) and order vodka (it’s the alcohol mail order store)
There are no thieves in Lapland! You can leave things lying around, no one will take them. Avoid thieving yourselves ( I know it's a dreadful French habit....) The snow, the sauna, the forest and the night
Inari is a very small place, but it is a tourist attraction as it is the most famous tourist village in Lapland.

Lapland has also its own population of the Laps.
They are living in the north of Norway, Sweden & Finland.
They have very unique way of dressing with very beautiful coloured clothes.
Lately the most famous Laps in the world is the folk band Angelit which used to be called Girls of Angeli.
If you planning hiking, not too heavy staff, it’s nice to feel light and you usually do not need to carry water with you. Good shoes is a must, even in the summer you will need a good jacket as it getting very cold at night, it has happened that our toothpaste was just about freezing in the morning. Also recommending a thick leather jacket or so, that the mosquitoes cannot bite through because they will get through your normal cloths, jeans and wind jackets. In the local stores and gas station you can buy mosquitoes repellent etc. You will surely need it in the summer and just for the information, the mosquitoes here are twice the size of mosquitoes which are for instance in the southern Europe region. What ever you have, take with you. You will never regret it. Don’t plan to buy additional items in Finland, they cost more here, but films are rather cheap. Buy the films already in Helsinki or the south of Finland, it might cost you more in the north and surely will cost you more in the Norwegian side. Good sleeping bags; we always go to camp on the higher mountains in the Tunturi region or in the Norwegian side. The mosquito’s doe’s not like the cold and then you can sleep batter at night and get back to the valleys & rivers in the daytime. Here are few Lapland links:
