Nourgam Travel Guide

Nourgam is the northernmost point in Finland and in the European Union. It belongs to the municipality of Utsjoki. Nourgam borders to the Norwegian hamlet Polmak in the municipality of Tana. At Polmak you find a common Norwegian and Finnish custom control. Most of the customers in the Nourgam shops are from Norway. An Alko shop opening a few years ago has especially contributed to that, and the Finnish reduction of duties on strong alchohol in March 2003 has even more augmented the traffic to this little place. Here you also find clothing shops - textili -, supermarket, iron shop, gas stations, car repair (Sami Auto), friseur, camping with café and internet service and also a restaurant/bar.
