Summary

Description
English: Fence that runs along the Finland-Norway border at Siđusgohpi, Sápmi, between Finland‘s Käsivarsi Wilderness Area in Lapland province and Norway‘s Reisa National Park in Troms og Finnmark province. The fence (installed here on the Finnish side of the border) there to prevent reindeer crossing the border, because the entire border has been closed for seasonal reindeer migration since 1852. However, the border can be crossed freely by humans (hence the stairs) and is also crossed by all-terrain vehicles (hence the gate).
Deutsch: Grenzzaun an der finnisch-norwegischen Grenze in Siđusgohpi, Sápmi, zwischen dem Käsivarsi-Wildnisschutzgebiet in der finnischen Provinz Lappland und dem Reisa-Nationalpark in der norwegischen Provinz Troms og Finnmark. Der Zaun verläuft entlang der Grenze auf finnischer Seite und hindert Rentiere daran, die Grenze zu überschreiten, da die Grenze seit 1852 für die jährliche Rentiermigration geschlossen ist. Die Grenze darf allerdings von Personen frei überquert werden, weswegen hier eine Treppe über den Rentierzaun und ein Tor für die Durchfahrt von Geländefahrzeugen installiert ist.
