Starting south of Ptrukša, ending at the rail crossing in Čierna nad Tisou.

Someting in the communication of the Border Police went wrong. After 20 minutes a Landrover of the Border Police appeared. The Police Officer was very agitated. It was clear he was not aware of our permittance to be here. After he called the Border Station and asked for explanation everything was all right in the end.

We continued our way to BM 356.

Border marker 353
Very close to BM 353 there is a little monument on the Ukrainian side. It's there from the USSR times and it mentions the cooperation between the USSR and Czechoslovakia in the water management in this area.

Border marker 356/1
From 356 to 356/1 is maybe only 200 meters but you have to make a huge detour to cross the river Latorica.
This pair is situated on a small dike.
I was here in April 2018 (second picture) and in October 2021. In April 2018 the river was flooded and almost reached the dike.

Not a real border strip with sand here, however the border area on both sides is clean.

EE-RU  20160415 Fence towards border marker 358
Although there is no border crossing in the area, the Slovakians erected fences here. And of course cameras. There is a closed border crossing at BM 359 which is still easily accessable.

EE-RU  20160415 Border marker 358
I had to picture this through the fence.

EE-RU  20160415 Border marker 359
Also taken through the fence.

EE-RU  20160415 Former border crossing at border marker 359
In the earlier days this was a border crossing. The barrier is a silent witness. Just a road without offices or formalities. Must have been closed with these concrete blocks.

And also closed with this fence.

Border marker 360
This pair is close to the tracks that cross the border to Tsjop (Чоп). The area is protected with fences on both sides and not accessable. It was not easy to photograph over or through the fence. First picture was taken from the north towards BM361, the second picture was taken rom the south, so over the tracks. Again a long detour to cross the railroad.
