I cycled there without much trouble (except for it being a bit windy). The forest itself was quite... odd.

After this, the paths I followed were flanked by large trees, with some fallen over but left there. Next to one of these paths, I found the hashpoint. I decided to not head back immediately, but complete a loop to go back to my bike. During all that time, I saw nobody else in this area at all, making me feel very much like I'm not supposed to be there.

Plans

xnyhps has never been to this forest before, but the weather looks nice so he's planning to cycle there and then try to see how close he can get.

Expedition

xnyhps

I cycled there without much trouble (except for it being a bit windy). The forest itself was quite... odd. Like most forests in this part of the country, this used to be an estate, but here its history was much more clearly visible. First of all, the only entrances I found were large metal gates. Only after walking around the gate I could see the sign about it being a public nature reserve (with the usual rules such as access only being allowed between sunrise and sunset). After the gate where I entered, the first part of the route to the hashpoint was a paved path with bushes that had grown so large they left less than half a meter of the path usable in some places. After this, the paths I followed were flanked by large trees, with some fallen over but left there. Next to one of these paths, I found the hashpoint. I decided to not head back immediately, but complete a loop to go back to my bike. During all that time, I saw nobody else in this area at all, making me feel very much like I'm not supposed to be there.
