    To see four stages on Friday and Saturday shouldn't be a problem.
    Never stop dreaming because one day it might happen.

    At least Oittila and Äänekoski on the morning loop should be doable, then a third stage on afternoon and finally Harju. If you want to be busier, you need to leave early and select your stages and spots accordingly and know the fastest routes (not only shortest but to avoid traffic jams).

    Last year I stayed in Korpilahti (Alkio-Opisto University). Very central area.

    Most of the SS have larger parking lots, where you can also park with a camper. You will go to the SS of the previous day in the evening and after lunch you will change your location. We have been doing this for many years and we like it. Most of the road parking roads are also wide enough to accommodate a camper. Just make a small plan what SS you want to see and that's all. While traveling by car, you can see more SS, but with camper it is much more convenient. It's good to wake up in the morning right next to the SS so there's no need to go anywhere

    Dear finnish frieds. I have a group of friends that are going to rally Finland for the first time.
    Can you help them out? They need to know:

    1) Where do you suggest to book their stay, private apartments with airbnb and similar? Or other soultions?
    2) When the roads will be closed for the rally?

    For a group I'd suggest some kind of cottage - just for the full Finnish experiment of sauna, swimming and an optional amount of fresh Finnish lager
    There's few (cottages, beer we have plenty of) still available in the Jyväskylä area for the rally week. For example in Himos (which is in Jämsä, quite ok to operate from during the rally) you can get one for 650€ a week, which, if you split it between 4-6 (?) friends, isn't that bad IMO.

    The roads will be closed 2-3 hours before the action begins.

    Nice suggestion, thanks, now I'm envying them to death because I can't go
