Location

On a stream river called Hengstenbach surrounded by trees, at the eastern town limit of Dreieichenhain (suburb of Dreieich), in Offenbach district, Hesse, Germany.

This day’s weather: overcast with a hint of sunshine – it started raining between 16:00 and 17:00 (CEST).

Participants

Plans

Green guy!

Due to this day being a Monday, unfortunately, many delightful restaurants are closed, leaving just a single option!

  1. Drive towards Dreieichenhain and have lunch at the restaurant of the sports center Turnverein 1880 Dreieichenhain (it closes at 14:00)
  2. Drive into Dreieichenhain and park next to the castle Burg Hayn in der Dreieich
  3. Go on a walk to visit the hashpoint
    • note for GeorgDerReisende: An earlier time is not possible for us, mainly due to restaurant planning and my mother having an appointment in the forenoon.
  4. Walk around the castle
  5. Drive back home

For me it seems that the stream flows some meters north of the hash, but it looks all as private and closed area. But I will try it. I leave Kassel at 8:23, and will arrive at the bus stop Burg Hayn at 11:55. From there are some meters to the hash area. Look out for a man in yellow and black!

Expedition

Green guy!

A nice expedition, but we couldn’t reach the coordinates – a combination of a bit No Trespassing (many barriers) with mainly My Kingdom for a Boat (as the supposed stream turned out to be a river of several meters in width) made this unfeasible.
