I crossed the river Rhine on the highway and drove near the hashpoint. There was a parking lot next to it. I hung up my jacket at the hashpoint, took a few photos and found about 8 geocaches on the way back to the Rhine. After a ferry trip I visited our nice and drove back home.

The (planned) last hash on my tour was on the other side of the Rhine and I obviously couldn't walk all the way. So I planned to go to Worms by train and walk from there. But first I had to walk to the station. I had 3.7 kilometers to the station in Darmstadt-Eberstadt and I reached the station 7 minutes before the train should depart. Just enough time to find the ticket machine and get the ticket. I changed trains in Bensheim and reached Worms around 11. So I was back at the place where the tour started 4 days ago. First I walked into the city to buy some additional food before I walked outside the town. Soon I reached a rivulet and followed it for more than an hour before I reached Pfeddersheim.
  
Success!  :-)

From here I had to walk through the lower Palatine fields. Only fields and paths between them. Hardly even a bigger stone or a log to sit down for a break. It had rained a lot last night and so most of the paths were very muddy. Nevertheless I walked all the way and reached the hash-point at 4 pm. I would have left a mark if I had known that Q-Owl wanted to come, but I thought it would be to far from his home.

I drove near the hashpoint. As [[User:DODO|DODO]] told me by SMS, the hashpoint was on a meadow, fenced with barbed wire. So I tried to win my first ambassador achievement and went to the farmhouse and stables next to the meadow, but nobody was there.
 
 
On my way back to the car I saw that the fence was a few meters wide open and it looked like there was nothing, which could have closed it during the last year.  
 
  
So I went to the hashpoint, took a few photos and went back to the car. :-)
+
I checked tomorrows hash-point and to my surprise it was almost on my way home. And on the top of that there was a very good hotel only 500 m from the hash and only 150 m from the station, from where I had to ride home. So I decided to stay another night away and visit tomorrows hash-point on my ride home.

Location

A hashpoint near Grünstadt on the left side of the Rhine valley.

Participants

Plan

Drive near the hashpoint, find it, walk back to the car, find some geocaches and drive home.

Expedition

Q-Owl: Success!  :-)

I crossed the river Rhine on the highway and drove near the hashpoint. There was a parking lot next to it. I hung up my jacket at the hashpoint, took a few photos and found about 8 geocaches on the way back to the Rhine. After a ferry trip I visited our nice and drove back home.

I did not think, that DODO would walk so far.^^ Otherwise I would have informend him bx e-mail. :-(


DODO:

The (planned) last hash on my tour was on the other side of the Rhine and I obviously couldn't walk all the way. So I planned to go to Worms by train and walk from there. But first I had to walk to the station. I had 3.7 kilometers to the station in Darmstadt-Eberstadt and I reached the station 7 minutes before the train should depart. Just enough time to find the ticket machine and get the ticket. I changed trains in Bensheim and reached Worms around 11. So I was back at the place where the tour started 4 days ago. First I walked into the city to buy some additional food before I walked outside the town. Soon I reached a rivulet and followed it for more than an hour before I reached Pfeddersheim.

From here I had to walk through the lower Palatine fields. Only fields and paths between them. Hardly even a bigger stone or a log to sit down for a break. It had rained a lot last night and so most of the paths were very muddy. Nevertheless I walked all the way and reached the hash-point at 4 pm. I would have left a mark if I had known that Q-Owl wanted to come, but I thought it would be to far from his home.

I checked tomorrows hash-point and to my surprise it was almost on my way home. And on the top of that there was a very good hotel only 500 m from the hash and only 150 m from the station, from where I had to ride home. So I decided to stay another night away and visit tomorrows hash-point on my ride home.
