Expedition

In a sense, this expedition is remarkably similar to last weeks expedition, but a little bit further north (and so a little longer trip for me). So I depart after lunch, on the exact same connection that gets me to work - just to stay on the line for a little longer than I usually do (and a little longer than last week), until the stop called "Eggolsheim".

From there, I start walking to the hash. I have to cross the canal, which at this point has merged with the river Regnitz (remember last week when my hash was between these two?), which I can only do alongside the frequently used road. It does have a walk / cycle lane attached to it, so it's all good from that perspective, but shortly after the bridge, the road towards Pauzfeld would require me to do a left-hand turn onto it. It does not have a visible walking path, and crossing the road isn't really practical either. Since the hash is west of Pauzfeld anyways, I decide to keep walking towards Schlammersdorf, and then using one of the footpaths into that forest.

I walk through an industrial area, and regrettably some of the roads I saw on my map are actually private roads inside some of these industrial businesses, so I walk all the way to Schlammersdorf proper to get back to a point where I can cross into the woods.

After a short search at the location of the hash, I record proof and proceed back to my train station. I notice that I'm very short on time to catch my train home - otherwise I'll have to wait for an additional hour - but luckily, I can walk much faster than what my app estimated, so I shave off minute by minute until I am back at the train station even with a 3 minute buffer. All good!
