Planning: A popular cycling route is as close as 300 m to the hashpoint, so I've already been near the coordinates a couple of times. The weather on Sunday will be great, so I plan to cycle to Neurott (it has a ''Biergarten''!) and check whether the coordinates are accessible.

Where?

The coordinates are in a field in Neurott, a small (60 inhabitants) rural community founded in 1937 as one of the first agricultural settlements in Baden-Württemberg. Trivia: Neurott lacked a proper wastewater treatment system (since it is cut off from the main sewer network) until Germany's first membrane wastewater treatment plant was installed here in 2005.

Neurott is located about 7 km from central Heidelberg. It's within a stone's throw of Patrick Henry Village.

A great opportunity to get another Walk Geohash for my collection!

Preliminary visit on 2009-06-14

A popular cycling route is as close as 300 m to the hashpoint, so I've already been near the coordinates a couple of times. The weather on Sunday was great, so I cycled to Neurott and checked whether the coordinates would be accessible on Monday.
