The Saatse "Boot" has become legendary, and is named for a boot-shaped piece of Russian territory that extends over the Värska‒ Saatse Road for 800 meters. Thus, everyone who travels the road gets to visit the territory of the Russian Federation for some time. There is no need for a visa to pass through the boot, though one should still have a passport or identity document just in case. One can only pass through the boot by car or bus, you can't go on foot. The car is not allowed to stop either. Be sure to keep in mind that you can't go within 10 meters of the border posts.
