I second that! we allso camped all over the Karelian isthmus and never had any problems!You can pretty much camp where ever you like to. No restrictions to camp fire.
We walked over some of the bridges before driving. Sometimes we ended up going through the river instead![]()
Hi!What kind of visa did you get to travel over there? Did you need to have a 'sponsor'?
Thanks. It sounds exactly the same as when I was back there in 2003, but I had heard that they had actually gotten stricter about it since then. Good to know that is not the caseHi!
Just "normal" turist visa, only "requirment" was that i needed to get an dokumet that insures that i visited places i told officials im gona visit!
there is 2 ways to do that, take in on local "hotel" or go to local hotel pay them for filling in an form for you! ( this case it was cheaper to stay overnight, and got an nice WARM shower!)
No "sponsor" needed! They are "loosing "up all that! Visa was quick business, send in form, pictures and back comes invoice, pay it an 2 days later you have visa in mailbox!
