Border zone

This permit area is limited to the border zone in the east, where hunting is prohibited. Pay particular attention to letting the dog go near the border zone. Stop and catch the dog immediately if it moves towards the border when chasing game. A permit is always required for visiting the border zone. Further information on applying for a permit can be found on the Finnish Border Guard's website (raja.fi).
