Hasselkopf
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hasselkopf is a hill on the southern periphery of Braunlage, Germany. It is 612 m high. Its geographical co-ordinates are 51°42'49 N, 10°37'08 E.
The hill is mostly covered in grass and undeveloped, but its northern slope has a short ski lift and can be used for downhill skiing in the winter months.
On May 7, 1964, the hill was used by Gerhard Zucker to demonstrate the use of mail rockets. One exploded in an accident, killing three.
