The open award silver group travelled to Germany for their expedition in October 2008. Spending five days in the Baden Württemberg area they walked 48kms over three days, camping in Freudenstein, Bretten and Ubstadt Weiher, finishing the expedition in Odenhieim. Travelling through woods, forest, open countryside and picturesque villages along the Weinstrasse they explored acres of vineyards.
At the end of the expedition they were able to spend leisure time in the Bretten, the twin town of Pontypool and Bruchsal, the twin town of Cwmbran. They met the Burgermeisters of both towns and were given guided tours of the tourists sights including the magnificent Bruchsal Schloss.
The expedition was supported financially by the twinning associations of both Cwmbran and Pontypool.
