Location

Högenhult, Marks municipality, Västra Götaland county, Sweden.

Participants

Expedition

I was travelling in Sweden, today going from Trollhättan to Varberg, and I decided to visit this hash that was in a forest about 45 minutes north of Varberg. I parked the rental hashmobile at a small car park at the beginning of a forest road, figuring that its rudimentary pavement would not be very kind to tyres and paint. This did mean that I would have to walk about 1.5 km to reach the hash. But the weather was nice, so it was quite a pleasant walk. I had to walk about 100 metres off the road to reach the hash, but I finally found it pretty easily. I took some pictures and went back to the car, continuing my way to Varberg and the Grimeton Radio Station.

Parked the car right here, just off the main road.
