Location

A tavern(?) at Międzybrodzkie Lake.

According to Google Maps, today's coordinates fall in the grassy yard of a private-owned guesthouse/tavern/mooring at the shore of Międzybrodzkie Lake within the limits of Międzybrodzie Bialskie village. It looks like a nice place.

Participants

Malgond
his family.

Plans

Go there by car, have a nice afternoon at the lake and maybe a snack at the tavern (if it turns out any good).

Expedition

Sadly, this expedition was marked by failures and disappointments. Nevertheless, no failure prevents a dedicated geohasher from having a nice adventure even if it turns out not quite like planned.

Since it was Saturday, I originally planned to arrive there by hash o'clock to boost my pathetic centurion achievement just a little bit. I intended to set out at 2 p.m. to get there before 4 p.m. - but you know how it goes with kids. In the end we set out at a quarter to four. Our planned route led us south along the dual-carriage road towards Zakopane, then west along route 52 towards Bielsko-Biała, the "capital" of the graticule. We've passed the towns of Kalwaria Zebrzydowska, Wadowice and Andrychów and turned south towards Porąbka and Międzybrodzie Bialskie, our destination.

On the route 7 near Mogilany.
The road through the hills.
Approaching Kalwaria Zebrzydowska. Bernardines Monastery on the hill.
The hills turned into mountains.
Crossing Soła river on a narrow one-lane bridge.
The dam of the Międzybrodzkie Lake.
The dam close-up.
High-voltage pylons on the side of the Żar Mountain...
...leading to the pumped-storage hydroelectric plant.
Our destination.

I have turned on a narrow driveway of the guesthouse and a parked on a lawn before the gate. Unfortunately, the venue was closed. Nobody responded to the doorbell. The grassy space and the tree under which the hashpoint was located was clearly visible, but unaccessible. At first I though we may be able to get close enough by going along the fence, but the neighbouring lot was guarded by a yellow gate with a 'no tresspassing sign'.

The guesthouse and tavern are closed.
The grassy courtyard with the hashpoint.
The hashtree.
A fence along the yard.
A closed gate.
