I was at the tripoint Hessen/Rheinland-Pfalz/Nordrhein-Westfalen some
weeks ago. It's not easy to find (inside a forest), there is a sign
"Dreiländereck" on a way that starts on the road that leads from
Rheinland-Pfalz to Hessen (on the Rheinland-Pfalz side), but this is the
wrong way! The easiest way to find this tripoint is to take the first
way into the forest at the Hessen side of the road and then, after about
1 km, take a small way left that leads to the actual tripoint.

I *think* this tripoint is a wet one actually. The tripoint marker is on
one side of a small brook, beside a bridge, and I *think* the brook is
the actual border of the Hessen state.

I do not have pictures of this tripoint, but the GPS coordinates: N 50
41 09, E 08 07 33 .

Is anyone also interested how to find the northernmost point of the
Rheinland-Pfalz state? ;-)

Best regards
