The circular hiking trail leads on a large loop from Warmisried through the Mindel Valley, with its still largely intact flora and fauna. The tour is named after the Dreiländerstein, which was erected in 1791 by the Irsee lordship as a replacement for an old boundary marker. At the Unterer Schwarzbach, the territories of the two Benedictine monastery states Kempten and Irsee met with the Kur Bavarian lordship area Mindelheim. The three-sided boundary marker is made of marbled, polished limestone. Engraved are the coats of arms with the signatures of the adjacent lordships. The boundary stone still stands in its original place today.

Über Feld-und Waldwege führt der gut ausgeschilderte Wanderweg „Um den 3-Länderstein“.
Den Parkplatz kann man auf diesem Rundweg anpassen.
Unterwegs passiert man den Wildpark Guggenmoos mit zutraulichem Damwild.
Jede Menge Bänke und Wasserstellen laden während der Tour zum Pausemachen ein.
Zum 3-Länderstein, der etwas versteckt im Wald liegt, führt anfangs ein Feldweg, der in einen Pfad übergeht. Auch ein Bach muss überquert werden. Statt einer Brücke findet man Betonsteine als Hilfen.
Insgesamt ist das eine sehr abwechslungsreiche Runde mit viel Wasser, aber längeren Strecken ohne Schatten.
