(visited by Ross Finlayson)

16-Jul-2016 -- I visited this easy (and very pleasant) Degree Confluence Point by taking a short detour to the south, while driving from Rothenburg ob der Tauber to Dresden. After driving through the town of Weißenburg in Bayern, I entered a section of forest, and parked on the side of the road at 49.00844°N 11.01043°E, about 1.2 km from the point. At this point a dirt road - signposted with a ‘no cars or motorbikes’ sign - headed towards the point. I hiked down this road, continued on another dirt road (branching to the left), and ended up passing just 15 m from the point. I then stepped off the path (encountering some stinging nettles) to get ‘all zeros’.
