Geohashing is a quest, of sorts, and Hobbits are well known for their bravery and fortitude while questing. To gain this achievement, you must attempt to emulate a Hobbit while getting there and back again.

Barefoot

Hobbits never wear footwear of any sort, so you must complete your round-trip journey with bare feet. If camping is involved, blankets and sleeping bags are fine, as long as you are barefoot inside. You are not allowed any foot-specific accessories such as shoes, socks, diving fins, or boots. Note that this does not imply a Walk geohash, since hobbits are known to ride horses, wagons, and many other modes of transportation, but you must also trust in your own two feet. At least 1km of the route must be walked.

Food

Hobbits enjoy eating. In a typical day, they eat breakfast, brunch, elevensies, lunch, afternoon snack, tea, dinner, supper, and bedtime snack. Therefore, to emulate a Hobbit, you must stop to eat food at least twice during your journey (suggested, but not necessary, that your meal contain some sort of wafer or bread).

a Ring

One of your party must be carrying a ring (any kind, could be a loop of string) all the way from the start to the hash point. It may change hands, and it doesn't matter who carries it, but a Ring must arrive at the hash point, and each hobbit must carry the ring at least part of the way. Optionally, someone may carry the ring back.
