(visited by Ross Finlayson)

11-Jul-2013 -- continued from 51N 8E.

After visiting 51N 8E I continued eastward along a series of country roads through scenic German farmland, to arrive at this confluence point which, once again, lies within a forest. I parked about 700 meters away, and then hiked along several overgrown paths that took me almost directly to the confluence point.

It's clear that this forest is sometimes used for hunting, as I saw a hunting blind nearby.

Continued at 51N 6E
