Location

In the woods near (or reasonably close to call it that ...) Hünstetten.

Participants

Plans

There happenes to be some spare time before lunch AND a geohash reasonably close by so we'll see what we can do.

Expedition

We drove as close as possible to the hash which took us a good 25 minutes. Unfortunately the last part of our planned route was closed so we had to stop in a parking area quite a bit further away and walk a bit more than expected.

GPS accuracy was rubbish as usual but we found the spot not far from a path. On the way back we stopped at a bench with a nice view so EmmJay could have a little break. All in all we walked about 6.1 km and the expedition took a good three hours.

Tracklog

See here. Driving not included.
