Flood closes border bridge - closure in Ferdinandsthal - structural inspection necessary
Zwieslerwaldhaus. The rain of the past few days has also brought a lot of water to the Große Deffernik. The resulting floods have damaged the border bridge in Ferdinandsthal near Zwieslerwaldhaus. This is because tree trunks and stones carried by the water have caused the stream to dam up at the bridge, partially undermining the foundations.
“If the water level continues to recede, we will probably be able to remove the washed-up material on Friday,” reports Franz Baierl, Head of the National Park. After that, however, a static inspection of the structure will be necessary. The border crossing between the Bavarian Forest and Šumava National Parks must remain closed to hikers and cyclists at least until the results are available. The nearest crossing points are in Bayerisch Eisenstein and at the Gsenget border crossing.
