Location

The hash is surrounded by woods and farmland, and close to the city of Nijmegen.

Most hashes around my home are smack in the middle of some farmland, so usually there's not much chance around here. Today I had the luck however that the hash was located nearby on a road between the fields.

Participants

Mr. Pi

Since it's a working day, there weren't any people that could join me. but the location was ideal for me at this point in time, so I decided to go nonetheless. I've been at home for the last two weeks with lower back problems, and since it finally is getting better and the doc told me to exercise, I needed a place relatively nearby where I could walk.

The hash for today filled the requirements quite well:

About five kilometers from home, so I could test if I could drive my car for a short time.
Located nicely in the woods/farmland, with ample opportunity to walk around.

Expedition

To get to the hash was easy and a tad boring. I parked the car nearby, and simply walked down the bicycle pathway until I stood on the required location. After that, I made a nice walk in the surroundings.
