Location

Today's hashpoint is located on the edge of a Rhine Branch near Rußheim, a part of the municipality of Dettenheim. Dettenheim used to be a small village very close to the Rhine. Due to fear of floodings, many people moved to the new village of Karlsdorf nearby. Today, only a few houses in Dettenheim are left. In 1975, the two former municipalities Liedolsheim and Rußheim were merged into the new Liedolsheim-Rußheim municipality, a very long name, which was changed into Dettenheim in 1978.

Planning

I had planned to go to Heidelberg on this day. Instead of taking, as ususal, the S-Bahn from Karlsruhe to Heidelberg, I decided to take a larger detour via Rußheim. Here's my planned schedule:
11:49, S1 from Karlsruhe Marktplatz, arriving in Hochstetten Grenzstraße at 12:28, then take Bus 192, departing 12:33, arriving at Rußheim at 12:45.
Then, I planned in two hours to walk the 2 kilometers to the Hash, explore the nearby area and walk back.
and then take the 14:45 Bus 192 to Huttenheim, then take the 15:04 Regionalbahn to Bruchsal and from there a Regionalexpress to Heidelberg, arriving at 15:48,
