In reply to Chris Shorter:
> Polish border guards opened fire on people encroaching from the Czech side in the Giant Mountains!
Come on, don't spread false news
Saw that on a news site about a month ago, and it went somewhat differently - guards fired two warning shots as a German guy (Czech resident) attempted to cross the CZ/PL border on foot - after they stopped his car and informed him that border was closed. And it was a regular road border crossing, nowhere near the Giant Mountains. Still serious (and there were many areas where the closures deeply affected local cross-border communities, at first even separating families), but not panicky like "guards opened fire on people encroaching". Not that I would condone even warning shots, of course!
Sure, the HRP and other routes that crisscross the borders frequently might be difficult, as the situation might still change a lot and it's a bit early to tell.
Dan, I'd definitely like to see an UKH article with updated information on that, if the borders open up enough by the summer!
