This historic border station, also known as "Altes Zollhäusl Dürrnberg", consisting of a small log cabin with a barrier, still had a function until the European single market in 1993. In the meantime, it only has the character of a museum - the small customs hut opposite on German territory is used as a ski and snowboard rental station in winter. This location is important insofar as one must not miss the steep ascent to the saddle back on German territory at this point on the mountain bike tour around the Hoher Göll with the starting point in Berchtesgaden. Otherwise you'll quickly find yourself back in the Austrian valley near Hallein an der Salzach.
