>which might be 2.5 km above sea level in Finland (what with all the steep bits and everything).

Steep bits? Are you thinking of Norway :-) there’s no steep bits in Finland, highest point above sea level is 1324M!

There was even a Norwegian campaign to gift a mountain for its birthday https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-37662811

The bloody cheek of those Norwegians!!

It's all relative - I live in a state 3x bigger than Texas and the highest point is only 1248m .. when I visited (man years ago) lot's of places in Finland looked steeper than here.
