From Norway: After a drive on a really bad road, you walk about 5-6 km through forest and swamp, mostly with dry feet. At the end, you go uphill along the fence over hill and dale, before you come across three countries and three time zones. From Finland it's about 20 km through swampy area. The warnings not to step on the Russian side should be heeded. Also don't lean over while taking a picture, every millimeter counts!
