Åland Adventure 2027

There will be ample parking around the event, both in designated spots and on the streets. Parking is free in Åland, but you need a parking disc showing your arrival time.

Note: Unlike many other places, you may not park against the direction of traffic in Åland!

Restaurants can be found both in Mariehamn and scattered around Åland. Many offer both flavorful lunches and hearty dinners.

Note: On Sundays the selection may be more limited, so it's worth checking exactly what's available in the area you're in.

If you need access to grocery stores, these are mainly found in and around Mariehamn as well as in Godby. These are open every day of the week, from early morning to late evening. There are also a few village shops outside the town centers with more limited opening hours.

In Åland, the right of public access applies, but it differs from the version in Sweden and mainland Finland, since Åland has its own rules and a sensitive natural environment.

The basic rule is "don't disturb, don't destroy". You're allowed to move around in nature, pick berries, mushrooms and certain flowers, and swim and travel on the water. Always show consideration for nature, wildlife, and landowners.

Important rules

• Preferably stick to paths and roads, and don't cross private plots or jetties.
• Dogs must not be let off the leash.
• Camping is allowed with a single tent for a maximum of 24 hours, with consideration for buildings and landowners.
• Open fires require the landowner's permission.
• Protected plants must never be picked.
• Motor vehicles may only be driven on roads, not off-road.
• Fishing requires a fishing permit.
• Show extra consideration for birds, wildlife, fishing gear, and sensitive nature.
• Diving with an air tank requires a special permit.
