Plans

Drive to Waldkappel by car after work and go for this hash in the forest...

Expedition

As planned I drove to Waldkappel after work and parked my car at the local swimming area (in summer, it's hard to find a free parking lot, in fall I was the only one around here) and went for a nice walk through the forest. Wanted to do a geocache first and arrived at the coordinates some 15 minutes / 1,5 kilometer later, bit there were some other people enjoying the nice weather right on the bank, where the geocache should've been hidden, so I left this one out and continued my way to todays geohash...

The sun was shining and filled the forest with another thousand of interesting colours, so I enjoyed my walk to the hash. Some 100 meters from the hash I found this nice place with a great view over the village Waldkappel and then a small path almost lead me directly to the hash... Well, almost... The path was surrounded by blackberries - stings and thorns everywhere, and still some 40 meters to go from here. I decided to further walk the path and after some 60 meters I found a 'better' path, sort of leading me back to the geohash... Still extremely overgrown, but less thorns, which was a good alternative.

So, after a little struggle on the final 25 meters I approached the hash - some pines and lots of bushes (never was in the jungle, but I guess this location got quite similar!)... Took some pics for evidence and then walked an alternative route back to my car, drove home and that's it!
