After a long pause without any expeditions for more than a year, I noticed that today's hash was relatively close to my home and wanted to give it a shot again.  It already looked quite challenging, as the geohash looked to be placed inside the [[wikipedia:Rhine|Rhine]] river.  But as it was reasonably close to the shore, I still tried -- there could be low water in the river after all. So I took the tram and walked to the river, where the final trip began.  I arrived at around 20:30 and the weather was pleasant to have a nice evening walk.

After passing below the "Fleher Brücke" ([[wikipedia:Bundesautobahn_46|A46]]), my walk was unpleasantly stopped by a high fence and a "no trespassing" sign: The geohash was located in a water protection area ([https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wasserschutzgebiet Wasserschutzgebiet]).  At that point, I was about 300m away from the hash and could already see it! I then tried following the fence, looking for a way to get closer.  After a while, I reached another gate, blocking the entrance via a path inside the area - still 230m away.  So I further strolled along the fence on a small road through the forest.  My closest distance to the hash was 154m, where a small bench was conveniently placed on the side of the road.  So I took a break, frowned towards the hash and continued my evening walk through the forest for a while, enjoying the nice warm evening.

At/in the Rhine river close to Düsseldorf-Flehe, located in a restricted area.


Participants

Expedition

After a long pause without any expeditions for more than a year, I noticed that today's hash was relatively close to my home and wanted to give it a shot again. It already looked quite challenging, as the geohash looked to be placed inside the Rhine river. But as it was reasonably close to the shore, I still tried -- there could be low water in the river after all. So I took the tram and walked to the river, where the final trip began. I arrived at around 20:30 and the weather was pleasant to have a nice evening walk.

After passing below the "Fleher Brücke" (A46), my walk was unpleasantly stopped by a high fence and a "no trespassing" sign: The geohash was located in a water protection area (Wasserschutzgebiet). At that point, I was about 300m away from the hash and could already see it! I then tried following the fence, looking for a way to get closer. After a while, I reached another gate, blocking the entrance via a path inside the area - still 230m away. So I further strolled along the fence on a small road through the forest. My closest distance to the hash was 154m, where a small bench was conveniently placed on the side of the road. So I took a break, frowned towards the hash and continued my evening walk through the forest for a while, enjoying the nice warm evening.
