Location

A forest next to a golf course near Wösslingen.

Participants

Plans

Go there by bull, continue my ride to Karlsruhe and come back by train.

Expedition

Pretty much as planned. I couldn't start before 1 pm and I wanted to catch the 16:08-train from Karlsruhe (the train goes every two hours and the next train would have been much to late). I had to go 70 kilometers and so I had to hurry. That was a pity, as I love the landscape of the Kraichgau very much but hadn't much time to enjoy it. Anyway. I came near the hash after 50 kilometers at five to three. I found myself on a path between a golf course on my right hand and a forest, that was protected by a nearly impenetrable thicket on my left hand. On the path I came down to 7 m, but that wasn't enough. So I followed the path to find a way inside the forest, and after 20 m the thicket had an outlet, just big enough for me. So I entered the forest and walked back. A minute later I found myself at the hash, took some pictures, build a wooden X and walked back to the outlet.

10 minutes after I parked it, I unleashed the bull again and continued my way. Soon I reached the suburbs of Karlsruhe and I reached the station at 15:50. Time enough to buy a ticket and some food, and to heave the heavy bull into the train. So I arrived back home at 5 pm.

Tracklog

70KM of bull-riding. As I ran out of batteries, I couldn't track the train-ride.

Photos

My tablet refuses to give free any pictures at the moment. I've no idea why it does so, but until that changes I can't provide any.
