We wanted to take a walk, so we decided to go for the geohash, as it seemed to be in a nice bit of forest right next to a footpath.

As usual, drive to the hash and attempt to reach it.
Expedition

We drove by car to the Sint Helenalaan, where we could park near the cafe Helenaheuvel at around 14:00, then we walked to the hashpoint. It was very close to the path, made it to within 20 cm without leaving the path. Then, we walked a bit further to the east to the Doornse Kaap, a lookout tower, and then back to the car.

I arrived at the car park at around 9:00. There were not many people around and the forest was pretty quiet. The hash was easy to reach, right next to a footpath. No crawling through thick bushes and over fallen trees this time. I took some photos and then explored the forest a bit more, taking some pictures of the Great Boulder of Doorn and climbing up the tower. Afterwards I went on to visit some museums in towns nearby.
