Participants
Expedition
I didn't know whether I wanted to go for this one because it was obviously inaccessible, but in the afternoon I reminded myself of my commitment to visit every hash that takes less than 2 hours if I can make the time, and this one was around 1:50 h. So instead of watching a film during my learning break, I took three trains to Alsterdorf and then cycled 1.1 km to the hash. It lay in a garden on on an island between the Alster and the Skagerrakkanal, a pretty wide artificial side channel of the Alster. From the map, I had thought the house next to the garden to be some huge private estate, but it turned out to be a very fancy irregular apartment building. My hopes to reach the hash rose as I saw a path lead directly to the garden beside the house, but only 10 m from the garden and 18 m from the hashpoint, a chain with the words "Kein Durchgang" (No access) hung across it. Although the garden was probably communal, and I wouldn't've had to venture far into it, I didn't dare intrude (or break the Geohashing rules). So I took some pictures of the house and garden (sadly I couldn't see the hash because it lay slightly to the side) and then cycled back to the station and took the trains home.
