Border Area and Trails

The nearby Svatá Kateřina (Rittsteig) border crossing enables day trips to the Bavarian side and back. Above Svatá Kateřina, the Sv. Kateřina–Rittsteig border crossing can be used.

Parking is available directly on site at the Svatá Kateřina border crossing. On weekdays, buses run from Nýrsko to the Chudenín and Svatá Kateřina stops; the Chudenín, Svatá Kateřina, st.hr. stop is also served only on a limited basis.

Border marker 15C has no Bavarian coat of arms carved and highlighted in colour on the Bavarian side because the border follows a watercourse there and the Chodská Úhlava forms a meander in the opposite direction.
