summit
On the summit of the Hasselbrack there is a trigonometric point , which is only a few meters away from the hiking trail in the forest and marks the highest point. Since February 2009 there has been a summit book in a metal box, which has also been used as a geocache since 2011 . In 2011 a large wooden summit cross with the inscriptions Hasselbrack - 116.2 m and July 16 , 2011 was erected. In the spring of 2013, the Wanderfreunde Hamburg replaced the cross with a marker made of white granite ; its inscription reads: Hasselbrack, 116 m - the highest point in Hamburg . From Easter to October 2014 there was a simple wooden cross with no inscription next to the stone.
Traffic and walking
