recrossing
Going back over
Recrossing is the present participle of recross, meaning to cross something again—typically a border, threshold, river, or other boundary one has already traversed.
After realizing she'd left her passport behind, she spent an hour recrossing the checkpoint.
The term appears most often in travel contexts or legal discussions involving repeated border crossings.
