Location
Today's hashpoint is located in the Odenwald, near Heidelberg, at an altitude of 462 m.
Expedition
ilpadre
Planning: Again, the hashpoint is reachable by foot, though it will be more difficult this time. A footpath through the woods is about 40 m away from the hashpoint. I don't own a GPS device, but I'm confident that I’ll find the spot.
Topographic map with hashpoint marker
Planned route
Expedition: The hashpoint was about 1 km from the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics (where I've been several times) and also not far from one of my favorite running tracks. The weather was nice, so I put on my running gear and started. It was a fun run, but I had to take a minor detour from my planned route. I reached the footpath from where I had to go through the woods after about 50 minutes. Then I spent 20 minutes looking for the exact spot, using the configuration of trees and other landscape elements for orientation. I think I located the hashpoint with an accuracy of 5 m.

And when we have reached to the highest of all / The gradations of growth our minds shall recall / So that link by link we may join them together / And trace step by step the way we reached thither
