Grüß dich! I've been waiting a long time for this one! Today's -37, 145 hash (East Melbourne) fell in Heidelberg - right next to the Heidelberg Train Station! This should be pretty easy for one of you to match up with a hash in your beautiful city. Good luck!

Anybody going? It's located in a forest near Zeiskam. Could be reached from Germersheim by bike (~7 kilometers). As every friday, I'm busy during the morning/noon, but I could catch a train arriving in Germersheim at 17:08. Germersheim is both KVV and VRN territory, btw, so it won't be too expensive for Mannheim/Heidelberg hashers as well.

I'm visiting Heidelberg today from [[Vancouver, British Columbia|Vancouver]].  Today's gash seems nice and easy to reach. Sadly, I'm catching a shuttle to the airport in 1 hour, so I can't meet you there. Good luck!  --[[User:Wade|Wade]] 06:37, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

I'll be at Heidelberg on 2012-01-15 and probably will go there a bit earlier. Unlike last year, I definitely can't really make any plans in advance yet. It might be a visit for a few days just as well as it might happen that it's being cut down to a daytrip (in which case hashing would be quite unlikely). If anyone around is interested in a meetup on e.g. saturday 2012-01-14, I'll see what is possible. --[[User:Ekorren|Ekorren]] 04:06, 5 January 2012 (EST)

Map user error.  Yesterday's was the easy to reach one, and [[User:Koepfel]] successfully reached it.  Today's is in the forest near an expensive house or hotel, and may not be as easy to reach (could be private property, and clearly is forest). Still, good luck to anyone who attempts it!  --[[User:Wade|Wade]] 07:51, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

Both OSM and Google maps place the railway tunnel "Neuer Schlossbergtunnel" between Heidelberg Hbf and Heidelberg-Altstadt almost exactly under the hash.
