Drive by car to the hash area after work and walk to the hashpoint.

Expedition

I drove home after work and drove together with my wife to Maudach, a little village and part of Ludwigshafen. The hashpoint lay in the middle of the Maudacher Bruch which is a dry swamp/moor, situated in a former curve of the river Rhine (see youtube.com).

We arrived after sunset and had a 1.5 km walk in dusk and ugly cold northwind to the hashpoint. It was easy to find (about 19:00 h) on a field, I took some photos and we walked back to the car. And we did the earthcache GC4230Z there.

Edit:
As Eupeodes wrote, there are some Problems with the coordinates today.
It seems that the coordinates, my smartphone displayed, are the right ones.
