Location
In the wood near Bensheim-Auerbach, the northern part of Bensheim, above the area of the fire brigade Hochstädten.
Participants
Plan
Drive to Hochstädten (in the east of Bensheim-Auerbach) after Work about 16:10. There might be a little footpath starting opposite to the "Fiesta" Restaurant and leading near the hashpoint.
Expedition
It was a little detour on my way home after ending with work a little bit earlier. I drove to Hochstädten, parked the car and had to find the path into the wood. After crossing a farmyard opposite to the "Fiesta" restaurant, I saw the path and went up into the wood until I reached the blind end of the path after 5 or 10 minutes.
About 30 m above this place I tried to find the exact coordinates. A GPS dance on a >45° slope is not very easy and with trees and dark clouds over you. ...^^ But it's possible: Success. :-)
I found and marked the place, took some fotos and went/drove home. :-))
To visit a hashpoint was the requirement for the safari geocache OCF495.
