Plans

In this free afternoon I wanted to visit this Hashpoint by motorcycle. A nice ride to the 'black forest' in Germany about 180km.

Expedition

In this free afternoon I wanted to visit this Hashpoint by my motorcycle. So I drove over the border to Germany in direction of the 'Schluchsee' in the 'Schwarzwald'. First I had to stop briefly at a place called 'Weizen'. 'Weizen' or Weissbier is also a popular type of beer here in Germany. (wheat beer) So cheers!

The Schluchsee is a really nice lake/reservoir in the foresty hills of this south part of Germany. Even though it was holiday season, there weren't many people here. I think it is due to changeable weather and day of the week. A short stop here and I continue in the direction of Menzenschand, where the Hashpoint is located. A nice route for motorbikes...

I was able to stop near the coordinates and walk the few meters across the meadow. But be careful: the whole area is a water protection area! After that I successfully searched for the nearby geocache. Unfortunately, I didn't have any more time for the waterfalls, which are a short distance away... I had arranged to go bowling with my brother.
