Plan
What was it going to be? A pretty southeastern hash means 53 5 is reachable. But that one is in a canal. I could bring swimming gear, but night temperatures are still about 4°C and the water probably isn't a lot more than 8 or maybe 10°C. Common sense tells me not to try that.
I also still haven't been to 52 5. What about that then? It's inside a national park with a 7 euro entrance fee. And I heard sunny saturdays are very crowded there. Since my money is pretty short... Sadly that also takes out 53 4. The hash was on Texel, but getting there would take 5 hours and somewhere between 50 and 60 euro for a return trip.
Of course 52 6 is way too boring, since that is only 3 fields away from last mondays hash.
Leaves 52 7. On a road. Reachable. Not very interesting. But! It is actually fairly close to the largest amount of hills in my neighbourhood, and I have found some tracks in that area with promising names like "Teutoburger climbing route". Click So lets combine (part) of one of those with the hash. Of course this hilly area only starts 60km east of where I live.
