Location

Between Klein Bademeusel (DE) and Tuplice(PL) on the Polish side of the border.

Participants

Plans

The closest available border crossing is north of Forst(Lausitz).

  • There is one really close (Bademeusel), which is a highway and unpassable for pedestrians and cyclists.
  • There is the rail operating between Cottbus and Tuplice, with three trains a day, either at ~6am or ~4pm.

Hence, we plan to go to Forst(Lausitz) by train (10,70 Eur reduced fee + bike pass¹, departure 10:03 on Hauptbahnhof), cross the border to the north of Forst, and cycle along the Polish side of the border until we hit either the geohash or the end of the passable roads. But it should be all forest tracks or something. Unverified sources say, there is a historical explosive factory somewhere in the area.

Expedition

  • We'll take the next train at 11. -- relet 08:51, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
  • success! we're back in Forst and waiting for the train. -- relet 15:59, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
