If we follow this definition, there is at least one other "pene-exclave" in
Austria. It's the town of Hinterriss (or Hinterri�) to the northeast of
Innsbruck, Tyrol, only accessible via Germany.

You can find it via

www.austrianmap.at

click on start, then enter "Hinterri�" at "Geographischer Name", click on
"Karte" (i.e. map). If you have trouble with the "�" sign, enter "Vomp",
which is the next largest town, and click yourself north.

You can also find it via Mapquest.com

Its location is 11�28'E 47�28'N
