Russian Border Tours
Description
There are regular tours from the centre of town that head inland to the nearby Iron mine and town, before continuing onto the Long Fjord – 18Km long and in winter used as a race track by snow scooters as no speed limits apply on its waters. From the Fjord you continue further inland to the Russian Border. Due to the nature of the border (being a Schengen border as well as an international border) you can't actually see the Russian entry point as you can't go beyond the Schengen signs without a Russian visa, but you do get to see an area where once the USSR and NATO actually met.
