The Austria – Czech Republic – Germany Tripoint is a dry tripoint located within the Šumava National Park and the Bayrischer Wald nature area. We accessed the tripoint from a car park near the Berggasthof Dreisessel and walked along the Czech – German Border path to the tripoint, taking in the Bayerischer Plöckenstein on the way. The tripoint is marked by a three sided monument with national symbols on each side. The forest showed signs of environmental damage through bark beetle infestation. Interesting border signs and border markers en route.
