The Moldovan border station at Criva, the starting-point of a path leading to the Moldovan-Romanian-Ukrainian tripoint.

The route goes in this direction, along the Moldovan-Ukrainian border.

It passes Moldavan-Ukrainian border marker #3,

... a Ukrainian watchtower,

... and Moldavan-Ukrainian border marker #2.

Next the path crosses a railway track,

... border signs on trees,

... and Moldavan-Ukrainian border marker #1.

A barbed-wire fence is the final obstacle before the border river Prut,

... where the wet tripoint is, halfway between the Moldovan-Ukrainian riverside and the corresponding Romanian territory on the opposite side of the river.
