Location

This Geohash is located in next to a path outside the golf course in Isernhagen.

Participants

Plans

Meeting at the central train station at 10:00, taking a tram to Altwarmbüchen, a bus to Lohne, and walking the rest.

GeorgDerReisende

The first announcement was for 16:00 and my plan was to be there at that time.

Expedition

DLichti

I set out at 9:00 to meet the others at Hannover Main Station. Unfortunately, we missed the 10:08 train which would have connected to the bus to Lohne. So we took the next one and walked from Altwarmbüchen terminal station. The weather was very nice, fresh, but dry and sunny.

First, heading north until we came to the Alter Postweg (Old Mail Road) taking us to the north-east. We came by an equestrian center, a blueberry farm, and a camping site on a small lake. The road turned into a nice old sett pavement through the forest. Short after a freeway overpass, we had to turn onto a small path along the back of the golf course.

As is often the case around golf courses, there were a lot a golf balls on the ground. (But also a sign warning about golf balls in the air.) So we started collecting them and ended up with a considerable amount each of us. Unfortunately, there was no number 7 ball among them.

All of a sudden, we had reached the location. It was between two fields right behind the golf course. Quite easy to reach, in principle, but all attempts to achieve a <1m distance reading on our phones' GPS lead us right into a pointy scrub. We took some pictures of the environment, of ourselves as well as our golf ball collection.

To take the bus in Lohne, we would have to run or wait for quite some time. So we decided to walk the same way back to Altwarmbüchen, where we took the next tram into town. Fippe left us on the way to change to another train, while a friend and I continued to my place for a late lunch. It was a nice spring day, and we had a good time all together.

Fippe

We met at the central train station and took the tram to Altwarmbüchen, and walked the rest of the distance. DLichti's friend turned out to be a Ninja Geohasher who had been geohashing while stationed at Neumayer-Station III, Antarctica (! - details at 2019-02-28 -70 -8) as a meteorologist. I was very impressed.

The golf players had littered the ditch next to the path we took with golf balls, which we took as souvenirs. This was the same path I took to 2019-06-04 52 9. Back then I photographed a sign warning people of flying golf balls which is very close to the destination this time, and it was still there. The Geohash was nearby, and we located the coordinates.

Afterwards, we walked back to Altwarmbüchen and took the tram back. I had a good time too, it was a nice expedition.

I left home at 8:20 and took the bus to Ihringshausen. There I got the train to Göttingen. But this train got a defect at Hann. Münden and most of the passengers took a train to Eichenberg for waiting for another train there. I took a bus to Göttingen. Then a train to Hannover, the light rail and a bus to Isernhagen. I walked to the hash, got the coordinates and waited for my friends. Nobody came. I wondered why. At 16:15 I left the site and took the way to Kirchhorst. In the beginning it was easy to walk, but on the last half, there were some passages, where I walked ankle-deep in the mud. The fourth of five was the worst. And I thought, this could be a reason, which hindered my friends to come.
