    Hiking

    The US border observation station "Point Romeo" was located near the town of Bosserode.

    Today, a memorial plaque erected by the municipality still commemorates this time.

    Along with India, Romeo was probably the closest to a possible advance route for enemy troops, as the motorway (from 1978) ran right past here.

    As with almost all observation points, there is a wonderful view in good weather.
