Plans

Find the hash.
Find some ice cream.

Expedition

xnyhps

We left at around 7:45 PM and followed the "Oude Spoorbaan" (Old Railroad) through the forest towards Bilthoven. This used to be a train line until the 1970s, when it was demolished and replaced by a cycling path. It is still 1-2m higher than the surrounding forest, creating a very smooth ride and great view through the forest. That brought us to about 400m from the hash, the rest we did half cycling half walking. It was about 16m from the nearest path, I got to within the range of error on my GPS. Then we cycled to Bilthoven, got ice cream, played a bit of Ingress and drove back.
