#1: The Confluence from 30 m Distance

(visited by Rainer Mautz and Elionora)

16-Aug-2022 -- We again started a long-distance hike. This time we decided to walk from the northern cape of Demark (called Grenen) back to Zurich. This confluence point was part of our hike network. On our fourth hiking day we visited this confluence point on our way south.

On confluence day, we started hiking from Aalborg, with its centre being less than 10 km away. The confluence is in the south-eastern outskirts of the city. It is located in an industrial / commercial district. The address of the Confluence is Sagavej 5 (which translates into “Storyway”). More precisely, the confluence is in the huge building of a service garage.

We didn’t bother to ask for permission to take pictures inside or to climb the roof of the building. So we documented the confluence – as all previous visits did – at the northern wall of the building, in a distance about 10 m from the actual location. At this location, there is a meadow with grass and flowers.

This visit hadn’t been visited for almost a decade. But just now 3 times in a row.

After the visit we continued our hike southwards. After one week of hiking, we finished this first stage of the hike in Kolding, which is located in Southern Denmark.
