Website Update December 2025

My focus this month is on the 2 IBRG trips I took this year.

LIVCO-25 was a 10 day trip which visited the Inner German border, the border between Germany and the Czech Republic before focusing on border POI’s around Lake Constance visiting the borders and tripoints of Austria, Germany, Liechtenstein and Switzerland and then finally POI’s between Switzerland and Italy. Many border crossings and markers, a divided railway station. 4 tripoints and 2 historical tripoints plus a visit to a rare quadripoint at Sorgschrofen (1635m) is where the 4 borders (2 German and 2 Austrian meet).

SATEX-25 was a 3 week trip to South America, the primary aim was to visit 4 tripoints including the most southern in the world. In addition there were exclaves, divided towns, border markers and border crossings. These visits are going to keep me busy updating my website over the next few months.

This months updates are a mixture of updating pages, structural changes and visit reports. It makes sense to me as I think how to approach the best way to do things! Please bare with me, it will all come together.

New Pages

This month saw the addition of 8 new web pages.

New Country Pages

Country pages are important in the structure of my website and as act as reference points to my visits. Maps, historical context and background information can be found on them. I see them as a “one stop shop” to know about a countries borders. I spent a chunk of this months updates focusing on the South American counties visited in October and November. Paraguay was completed last month.
