Coming from the border crossing Tudora we go west. On every angle there is a pair of border markers.

MD/UA 0691 not found Border marker 0621
When we arrived at 0621 two officers of the Poliția de Frontieră were waiting for us. I think they expected us already as we came from the border crossing. They guided us to the next three border markers. It saved us some time as we were not sure about the road along the border but they knew exactly how and where to go.

Standard setting with the anti-tank ditch and the sand wall on the Ukrainian side.

We only made a quick stop here for a few pictures. Our guides in the white car were waiting to show us the next border markers.

It took a long detour to reach this border marker as there was a creek we couldn't cross. Easy for us, we only had to follow the Politia de Frontiera. Our rental car (Toyota RAV4) had no problems with the sandy and bumpy roads. Close to the marker 0624 there's already a slight angle which is marked by the half-height submarker 0624-01. In the earlier days and on old maps there was a small border crossing here. An abandoned control post on Moldovan side is still left.
Here the Poliția de Frontieră left us. They advised us to follow the path along the border to the next border marker. We did, but you could hardly call it a road: it partly ran over the edges of some fields. But again our RAV4 could handle it.

The border makes a sharp angle here.

Some markers close to eachother here. We could walk along the border and over the fields to 0628 - 0630.

Border marker 0628
Endless fields, a wall and a deep ditch.
On the second picture one of the white intermediate markers.
