In a forest near Silberstreifen, which is a part of Forchheim, which again is a part of Rheinstetten

Participants

Plans

As the federal elections were today and the 48,8 hashpoint wasn't too far, I didn't want to miss the chance for a Democracy Geohash Gratuitous Achievement.

I planned to vote at about 14:30 and then take trams 5 and 3 to Karlsruhe Ebertstraße and from there the SEV (rail replacement) bus. Why replacement? During the last year, the two rail lines (one via Bruchhausen and one via Durmersheim, Silberstreifen, where the Hashpoint is, being at the latter) between Rastatt and Karlsruhe has been under renovation. The Brucxhhausen line is currently closed, while all trains go via Durmersheim. Due to the increased traffic, the light rail can no longer stop in the villages in between, so I had to use a replacement bus. If I started at about 14:47, I would arrive in Silberstreifen at approx. 15:40.

Report

The rather boring hashpoint was reached at 16:00. A not too exciting expedition.
