From the Kleinhüniengen BUS station, walk through a rarely visited industrial area for about 1 km. At the end of the peninsula in the middle of the Rhine River, you can see a rocket-shaped monument. This is the monument where Switzerland, France and Germany meet. It is a very ordinary monument, but the feeling is quite profound. Compared with many neighboring countries on the earth that are hostile to each other, the residents here can travel freely between the three countries within 10 minutes without restrictions. The value of peace is too precious.

Parked in Germany, Rhein Center, crossed the border. Otherwise you need a vignette. Walk approx. 20 minutes. It's OK, you can do it.

The most boring sight I've ever seen. The way there on the right side of the Rhine is quite nice, but it's really not worth it for the result. Really disappointing.

The place is famous for being on the three borders or three countries at the same time. Bus 11 takes about 40 minutes from the station. Tickets are taken from green ticket machines located everywhere. Prices depending on the time you have to go around 1h 9h 24h from vary from about 4 to 10 fr. Walk along the Rhine river, the view is great. Souvenirs, a keychain with a Swiss knife, can be found from 8 to 20 fr.

There is not much to do here in February. Nice walk there, but it is a bit of a search from Germany. We parked the car in the large shopping center where you can park for 3 hours for free with a parking disc. But the walk is worth it.

The monument where the three countries meet is a large iron pylon in the shape of a rocket with the flags of France, Germany and Switzerland on the tails. Technically, the tripoint where France, Germany and Switzerland meet is in the middle of the Rhine river. But since we can't really put up a monument there, the Swiss have put up the Dreiländereck on the Swiss side of the border which is as close as you can get on dry land. Interesting to the map nerds, this is one of only 157 *national* tripoints worldwide and the only one in a major city. The spot is part of the Swiss freight port but is accessible by car and via a footpath that is only about 1 km from Kleinhüningen metro stop.

After I thought I had a good time as I drove past the junk, I went to the top of the harbor. The monument could also be seen there. I would have liked to have stayed a moment longer, but I was able to do so due to the lack of toilets.

It is a very wonderful and beautiful place, where three countries meet, and the subject of their flags is at the meeting point in the form of a small extended roundabout, surrounded by river water on both sides, and there are herbs and a beautiful view. At this point, there are the flags of the three countries engraved on a metal tower that points in its direction to the flag of each country. The countries are Germany 🇩🇪, France 🇫🇷, and Switzerland 🇨🇭. A place worth visiting, there is a bridge in front of it that connects France and Germany as well.

Not the easiest photo spot in Switzerland to find. The route to the photo spot is not particularly attractive and you ask yourself several times whether you are still on the right path. But once you get to the spot itself, the view is worth it. Not as idyllic as other photo spots - but still honest and impressive.

The monumental structure shows the intersection of the borders of three countries, namely France, Switzerland and Germany. By walking around the monument, you symbolically set foot in all three countries. At this point, the view of the river is also beautiful.

What a fun spot to be “in 3 places at once” Be weary when going with little ones as it is a very industrial area and there not much of a walking area unless you’re along the river. But once you’re there you can’t missed it!

It's not easy to get there by car. A short walk and few parking spaces. You have to walk down a few stairs. It is not very special, but just in terms of feeling that you have been there. The view is beautiful. Probably when the weather is nice or high season, it gives a different feeling.

Totally run down! Even the path to the border triangle shows traces of vandalism and neglect. The monument itself is in a heavenly condition that is not worthy of Basel!
