Location

On a highway north of Stockholm.

Participants

Expedition

We knew that we probably wouldn’t really be able to reach the geohash, as it is located on a highway, but we decided to go for a walk around there anyway. We left from home at about noon, went ice skating for an hour on artificial ice at Östermalms IP, and then kept on walking north for about an hour until we stopped to get some typically Swedish food (for instance a kebab pizza). We then decided to continue by subway, and arrived near the geohash. As expected, the point was situated on the highway, so we could not get closer than 10~20 meters. After that, we were quite close to a very nice area, so we walked for a hour or so in the forest along the northern coast of Bergshamra, until we reached Ulriksdal castle. When we finally decided to go back to the city, a bus appeared out of nowhere so we took it and went to eat some semlor. A very nice day, even though we didn’t actually reach the geohash!
