  • Åre Östersund Airport (OSD) is the main airport where car hire is available. The car hire offices are conveniently located within the airport terminal, making it easy to pick up your hired car upon arrival.

For a hassle-free travel experience, consider booking car hire in Östersund online to ensure availability and to save time upon arrival.
  • When driving in Östersund, be aware of the presence of wildlife, particularly in rural areas. Moose and reindeer are common in the region, so exercise caution and be prepared to encounter them on the roads. It's advisable to drive at a moderate speed, especially in areas with dense vegetation and signs warning of wildlife crossings. Stay alert and keep a safe distance from vehicles in front of you.

In winter, the city may experience heavy snowfall, making driving conditions challenging. It's essential to drive cautiously, follow weather updates, and consider using winter tyres for better traction.
