As we passed by the point on our way from Vienna to St. Pölten anyway, I decided to drive up there and see what it's like. As we found out, it had fallen on a hill next to a small village with very complex local name. It was possible to drive to appr. 100m from the point... well, actually there was a road of tractor going uphill from there, quite exactly to the point, but it went through a ditch and was kind of shaky in general, so we decided to better not take it. There were some big felled logs laying around the point and nice overlook to the village downhill.

As I was on holiday in Austria and didn't get a chance to try out mountain skiing due to high temperatures, I decided to conquer the hills by doing some geodashing instead, together with my wonderful companion who happens to live around there. So first we tried our luck in south-eastern corner of the country, near the village named Fünfhöf, which definitely turned out to be a pleasant experience. It was possible to drive to 105m from the point, where the road ended by a unique privately owned "railway station" next to a farm-house. From there I climbed up along the meadow on the hill-side and made it to zero. There was a wonderful view from the point to the surrounding mountains and villages between them.

It was a sunny day in the end of winter. It was possible to drive to 150m from the point, from where I took a walk. The point was on a clear cut area of forest. After reaching to zero, I walked to the northern coast of island Muhu through the junipers. It was kind of nice, but the problem was that the junipers were annoyingly wet, which is common during this season. On the coast it was very beautiful, however. Mainland and some neighboring islands were visible over sea and there was a big cargo ship on the strait.

It was possible to drive to 800m from the point, after what the road conditions became really bad. And when I tried to turn around, I got stuck and couldn't get out otherwise than walking to the nearby village and finding someone, who had a tractor and agreed to come and pull me out. As it was dark then already, I decided to go back home after that and not to try to reach to the point this night. On the following day I went there again. This time I stopped little bit before the road became too soft and walked onward to the point along the coastline. There were some junipers and reed and coastal meadows on the way. The point was on the coast, about 20m from sea. Afterwards I took a longer walk by the sea. It was very windy and quite cold and I was happy when I finally reached back to the car - in the dark once again.

It was a sunny, but windy day in the beginning of October. The point had fallen into the picturesque village named Mustla, about 1km from a bigger road. The exact location happened to be in a corner of the yard around a farm-house. No-one seemed to be home there, at least not outside, and it was nicely between some trees and bushes, so I managed to make it to zero.

It was a nice and warm day in the beginning of September. Bus dropped me to 6km
from the point, from where I walked. The point was in woods and on the way to
it was kind of a big trench. It took some creativity to cross it, but after
some effort I made it with dry feet.

It was about 50m from a small road, but I decided to walk there from a bigger road through forest. During the walk there and back I ate blackberries, raspberries, wood sorrel and a single blackcurrant. The point was in forest, next to some fallen trees.

I'm not 100% sure what exactly is there, but on the sign there is written "Archaeological monument settlement place is under national protection".
I didn't go in there either, because I was in shorts and there were lots of nettles.
