Three-country tripoints

[Greg Masters]

It seems that there are quite a few places where three countries meet and this is one of them.

A few days ago Mrs M and I were in Norway, Finland and Sweden in the space of a minute or less.

The only downside of this wonderful wilderness was the temperature - a cool -22C

Of course, we travelled by snowmobile ...

I think I would rather do similar at one of the two in Luxembourg (FR/DE, BE/FR) or the one near Nauders (CH/A/I)

On our final night in Northern Finland, we had another snowmobile ride deep into the wilderness - several miles from the nearest light source (except a log fire in the travellers' hut).

Utterly beautiful.

Looking on Googlemaps the westerly point looks walkable, not so sure about the easterly tho.

Ho ho, as I never venture away from the trusty steed except to sup the coffee, both of these are beyond me

No customs officers at either of them. I know how to smuggle out a few thousand B&H Gold next time I'm in Andorra. Result.
