Treriksrøysa
Treriksrøysa (Norwegian: Three-country border cairn). Norway has two three-country land borderpoints and also two cairns of a similar type. The western is on the meetingpoint of her borders to Finland and Sweden, and the eastern on the meetingpoint of her borders to Finland and Russia. The western one is located only 800 metres (2,600 ft) north of the eastern one, even if they are more than 300 kilometres (190 mi) apart.
