The weekend geohashes 2021-07-24 and 2021-07-25 were both in a southern part of my home graticule where I already had been hashing a couple of times. The geohash on Monday, 2021-07-26, however, looked interesting. It was very close to my home base but nevertheless in an area which I did not know. I was planning to do it on Monday during lunch break.
I saw on the Maps that there is a reservoir which I did not know a few kilometers from the geohash. On Monday, I would not have enough time to explore it. Therefore, I decided to go on Satureday to already check out Monday's geohash and to look for pathways to the reservoir. I did not know the condition of the roads and paths, so I took the lightest of my running motorcycles, die Krähe.
I easily reached Monday's geohash on Satureday. It was just a 15 minutes ride and then 500 meters walk. I took some photos, also on the way back. I arranged them here in the sequence of approaching the geohash. On Monday, I plan to be there at 12:00 or a little bit later.
To find the reservoir was more difficult. It required quite a walk around some fenced area. A couple of times I was about to give up, but finally I found it.

Lots of landscape.

From here on I walk.
Nice views while walking towards the (future) geohash.
I put the two stones on the point to mark it for when I return the day after tomorrow.
Looking straight up.
View from the geohash; looks like a quiet neighbourhood.
Looking back the path I came. The geohash is (will be) one meter left of the center tree.
The search for the reservoir seemed to end here…
… but there was a path around the fenced area.
Finally found the reservoir after a long walk, but the descent looked dangerous, so no direct access from here.
