there are only a couple of dozen top level or regional
tripoints in france
from among the several scores of departmental or
subregional ones

& as this map suggests
http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/europe/france_admin91.jpg
the tripoint of the french regions of alsace &
lorraine & franche compte
for example
is thus also the tripoint of the departments of haut
rhin & territoire de belfort & vosges

a likely location for the tripoint is at the top of
this tower

http://www.geocities.com/trekeuropa/Vosges/Etapes/Etape21.html
but this is just a guess & moreover it looks rather
difficult to climb
& there are various other markers strewn about the
round top too
so be sure to confirm if the exact identification is
correct before trying
