(visited by Herman de Haan)

28-Jul-2023 -- From Delft on the way to Willingen I visited two confluence points, 51N8E and 51N9E.

Both points are in an area which is popular among the Dutch because it's relatively close to the Netherlands, about a 3-4 hours drive and you can go there for a ski or hike holiday.

Last June the longest suspension bridge in Germany has been opened in Willingen (Sauerland). 665 meters long. Very impressive.

The CP was very easy to visit, it's close to Grubenstrasse. Unfortunately the CP zero's are in an area which is sort of closed off by a wire, probably for forest maintenance.

  • Nearest main street/highway: 517 m
  • Distance from road: approx. 155 m
  • Time start walking: 13:45 P.M.
  • Arrival at CP: 13:50 P.M.
  • Weather: cloudy
  • Temperature: 20°C
  • Nearest UNESCO World Heritage Site: Cologne Cathedral
  • Interesting facts/experiences: it took almost 15 minutes to get my GPS going. It had difficulty to connect to satellites
