Well this was an easy one. We needed to go to the city anyways and decided to take Pedro with us for his evening walk which would then nicely coincide with a hashing opportunity.

So we located a ticket machine, but it's time was not updated back to "normal" from daylight-savings-time and therefore displayed later than 18:00 (CEST). Despite this, we tried to give it money, but it simply refused to take it – so we got free parking after all. | Well this was an easy one.

Location
Within city boundaries, somewhere next to Lichtwiese campus of the university. According to the map, on a forest path.

Expedition
On Thursday, Rincewind checked the app and discovered this looks like a near, easy to reach hash. We planned to go after TheOffspring's working day (i.e., Kindergarden), if the weather allows.
While it was rather chilly, it was dry and we met at Kindergarden after Yakamoz' work and fetched TheOffspring. TheOffspring was intrigued where we would go and had some snacks in the car. We parked somewhere convenient and actually checked out where to go. It was just some 350 meters walking, but the Offspring came to the conclusion that this wasn't much of an adventure and that she was just being dragged along through a damp forest soon.
Behind allotment gardens, there was a small bridge over small Darmbach river, and just 20m further, directly next to a crossroads there was the coordinates on the gravel path through the forest. Since this is the bicycle road between Darmstadt and Roßdorf, it made quite a lot of people unsuspecting hashers that day. The hard gravel made it a bit difficult to properly mark the spot and we didn't want to pile sticks for unsuspecting cyclist to run over with the pending nightfall.
So we took our photos and went home to enjoy the weekend. Yay, success! :)

Happy hashers.
Looking around at the hashpoint. Forests in autumn are beautiful.
