Description
ENGLISH: It seems the bridge to the island is open again, so I'd like to invite you to take the tour to the container placed there. It is a really beautiful hike! But: As I'm not in the vicinity at the moment I can not personally check if it is safe to do so. If you are unsure if it is safe to cross or if the cache box on the island has somehow got lost over the past months, please use the replacement near the parking space.
Original Description:
ENGLISH: This cache is a thank you for all the fine caches we discovered while on our many holidays at Denmarks western coast. It is placed at a quiet spot on Hindø, a small island in the middle of Stadil Fjord. You can only reach it by foot or cycle. Please note: Do NOT enter private property, do NOT disturb the animals - wild or domesticated -, do NOT leave the marked ways, and please place the cache back exactly as you found it! Terrain rating is 2.0 because of the 3km hike to get there from the parking area. The cache box is either a big "micro" or a small "small", only small items can be traded, some TBs or Coins might fit inside.
MANY MANY THANKS TO quiche FOR ADOPTING!

Mit dem Auto bis zum Parkplatz, weiter mit dem Fahrrad und dann den letzten Kilometer zu Fuß. So kommt man sehr gut zur Dose. Und der Fußweg gehört zu den schönsten Erlebnissen. Vielen Dank.

Die Brücke ist offen und renoviert (jetzt eine Holzplankenbrücke. Schöner 6 km Rundweg um die Insel mit herrlichen Blicken, und unterwegs der Cache, nicht allzuschwer. Laut hinterlassenen Notizen dieses Jahr schon mehrfach gefunden. Eine absolute Empfehlung! DfdC
(PS nach dem Parkplatzcache gar nicht gesucht)

The bridge is open and renovated (now a wooden plank bridge). Beautiful 6 km circuit around the island with wonderful views, and on the way the cache, not too difficult. According to notes left, this year already found several times . An absolute recommendation! TftC
(PS not searched for the parking cache at all)

I really hope the bridge will be repaired some day, but until then you can find an ersatz box at the coordinates N56°09.044 E008°14.400.
This is not the cache I originally created, but still better than nothing. The area is still worth a visit if you like watching birds on the fjord but sadly the hike across the island is not possible at the moment.
Please do not try to cross the bridge until it has been repaired and the gate has been removed, it seems to be dangerous in the present condition!

Well, that's a pickle...
Today I went to see what this is all about and the bridge is definitely closed. It wasn't in a good state last year and it looks like it is just plain hazardous to try to cross it now. Also, it looks like there won't be a new bridge any time soon. (See attached images.)
That leaves me with a cache that cannot be reached by "normal" means. I can't even get there to have a look at the logbook.
On the other hand it is probably still there and can be logged, if you can figure out a way to get to the island. (I'd suggest a boat. I wouldn't recommend swimming all the way, it's probably not such a good idea - Stadil Fjord is not that deep, but probably deep enough to drown in...)
So, I will keep this cache in a "disabled" state for now. I guess as no one can get to the island at the moment, it doesn't block any new caches. Additionally I can't collect the cache box at the moment, so it technically remains logable. Maybe I'll turn it into a T5 or something... ;-)

Hier kamen einige meiner Muggelfreunde etwas an ihre Schmerzgrenze.
Erst wurde mein Vorschlag zum Inselbesuch gerne aufgenommen.
Als ich dann nach Überqueren des Inselsteges verkündete : nur noch etwas mehr als 2 Km, kam erstes Murren auf.
Aber bis auf einen Umkehrer und einen Humpelnden waren die drei Übrigen glückliche Finder.
Und auf dem Rückweg war heftiger Rückenwind.
