Location

An island between the Rhine and an old branch between Biblis and Bürstadt.

Participants

DODO

Plans

Just walk there from Biebesheim and continue my way to Bürstadt. It's a little bit disturbing that the Hash leads me to another point in the Rhine Valley. A walk in the nearby Mountains would be more fun. But I can reach the point by foot without using public transport.

Expedition

Number two of this years hash-tour. Here you'll find the last and the next adventure.

After an hour I reached the Rhine again close to the ferry I used yesterday. I followed the rhine up to this beautiful strand

After a long while I reached this hut at the outlet of the river Weschnitz into the rhine. I made a break there. It will become quite important for tomorrows walk. 2016-04-29 49 8-9.jpg 2016-04-29 49 8-10.jpg
2016-04-29 49 8-12.jpg 2016-04-29 49 8-14.jpg Another while later I crossed a branch of the rhine and entered the Maulbeeraue, an old island. Now I had to leave the rhine. A last picture with the industrial area of Worms.
Some impressions of the islands landscape (including an old well). 2016-04-29 49 8-15.jpg 2016-04-29 49 8-16.jpg

2016-04-29 49 8-21.jpg I still had to walk for another one and a half hour, and so I made a break near the hash on this stub. But in the end I reached this very nice hotel 2016-04-29 49 8-23.jpg
