15-Jul-2013 -- Continued from 54N 10E

Wow - yet another wheat field.

After visiting 54N 10E in northern Germany, I continued northwards along the A7 Autobahn, finally leaving it near the city of Flensburg. I then drove along several rural roads that ran close to the Danish border, before eventually crossing the border into Denmark. So began my quest to try to visit all of Denmark's land confluence points!

I continued on a confusing maze of rural roads, ending up on a narrow sandy dirt road, 660 meters east-south-east of the confluence point. From there, I hiked first across a grassy field, then across a ditch, then across another ditch, and finally into a wheat field (following some existing tractor tracks to avoid damaging the growing crop).

The view is pretty much the same in all directions: Wheat in the foreground, with trees (marking the edge of the field) in the background.

Continued at 56N 10E.
