Location

Right next to a lake close to Duisburg-Entenfang.

Participants

Expedition

On a nice summer evening, pah noticed that the today’s hash was only 200m away from an easy to reach train station. He quickly jumped on the next tram, took an “S-Bahn” to Duisburg and then the RB37 (Der Wedauer) to Duisburg Entenfang, where he arrived around one hour later.

During the remaining 200m of walking, pah realized how close the hash was located to the lake Entenfang. It took about 20 minutes of hash dancing - always scarily close to the water - until he caught a reasonably well GPS lock. And yes, the “proof” picture was taken less than the one meter away from the shore, which the GPS still reports as a distance. You have to trust me, that the jumping GPS coordinates never actually led him into the water, though.

Lucky to have reached the hash with dry feet, pah took some pictures and went back by train to Düsseldorf via Duisburg again.
