There are several stretches of road which are for use as a runway in Finland.
A few (maybe 4 or 5) years ago they were often used and notices would appear in the papers advising of the road closures.
I haven't heard of them being used recently but that may be down to me not reading the newspaper or perhaps the practice has gone out of fashion.
Two, which immediately come to mind, are on the no. 5 road a few kilometres north of Heinola and on the no. 4 road between Rovaniemi and Sodankylä.
There is another on the no.4 road between Lahti and Jväskylä but I can't remember where exactly.
I have driven over others but again I can't remember where.
