First of all I decided to let my car near the Rheingoldhalle, a concert hall of the city of Mannheim. So I had an additional KM to walk anyway. Then I missed the right way to the hash.

Location

In the Landschaftsschutzgebiet (landscape protection area) Reißinsel near the bank of the river rhine.

Participants

DODO

Plans

I have to go to the rowing club in Mannheim-Rheinau anyway, and todays hashpoint is just 7 KM away from there, so I'll have a look. Hope to arrive at 4pm.

Expedition

Well, it should have been easy, drive near the hash, walk 3 KM to the point and back and continue to the rowing club. But it wasn't.

First of all I decided to let my car near the Rheingoldhalle, a concert hall of the city of Mannheim. So I had an additional KM to walk anyway. Then I missed the right way to the hash. The Reisinsel is a nature reserve nowadays and is completely fenced, with only five gates. And there was none of them where I want to enter. So another additional KM had to be walked. But then I found the right path that brought me 60 m to the hash. There was a thicket of nettles and blackberries, but it seems to be doable. So I left the path and entered the copse. The thicket gets worse and worse the closer I come to my aim, so dancing was really uncomfortable. GPS accuracy was bad, but I got a 3. Good enough for me.

On my way back I got lost and had another detour. So all in all I walked 7,5 KM and needed 80 minutes instead of 30. All in all, a lot of fun again. I came late to the christmas party at the rowing club, but there were still some Glühwein and some sausages and some cake. And I had a success to celebrate.

Tracklog

35 KM by car (instead of 25 KM), 7,5 KM by foot
