Location

Horsterwold forest, Zeewolde, Flevoland province.

Participants

Expedition

Today was grey and drizzly. But the wide open spaces of Flevoland are always beautiful, so I decided to go for this hash. I drove to Zeewolde (a small town in the southern part of the province) and did some shopping in the city centre. I then went to the forest, parked at the entrance and walked towards the hash. It was located among some bushes by the side of a footpath. I managed to find it with a bit of dancing. I then walked through the forest some more, climbing a small hill to get a good view of the surroundings, before going home again.

Photos

The entrance to the forest. There's a warning sign telling you to keep proper distance from livestock, but I didn't meet any.
The (muddy) path towards the hash.
I spotted this camouflaged high chair, which should come in handy if you want to see animals.
The hash is among these bushes.
GPS proof.
Lloyd posing for a picture.
The view from the top of the hill.
