Location

In the woods close to a homestead named Svaneborg. About 30 km south of Örebro and 5 km west of Pålsboda.

Participants

Belteshassar

Plans

Planning to leave Örebro by bike around 9 on Sunday morning in order to make it home before lunch. This will be my longest cycling trip yet this year. The pace will be around 20-25 km/h so the whole trip should take maximum 3.5 hours including a coffee break - hot water and instant coffee will be brought and consumed in the event of a successful expedition (probably also in the event of an unsuccessful expedition). The weather forecast is promising a sunny day, but it will probably be chilly in the morning.

There are two possible ways to attack the location. Either from Svaneborg about 200 m west of the hash or from a road of unknown quality (could be a path actually) that according to some of the more trustworthy Swedish online maps should end about 100 m to the southeast of the location. Considering that the inhabitants of Svaneborg could be annoyed by geohashers taking a shortcut over their yard the primary plan is to use the second route alternative. The old E3 is a wide road with relatively little traffic so it will be used to get to Kumla from where the intended route goes across the fields to the southwest, see map for details.
