Startplatz-Beschreibung
640m ASL, wide enough for two paragliders to be laid out side-to-side easily. Artificial traction surface with grass growing through it – very easy launch, plenty of running room, no bushes, entanglements, etc. Plenty of wind indicators. Top landing possible.
Anfahrt
Have to go by car. Google: Okamidake Camping Ground, Niigata Prefecture
Wetter
No specific weather hazards.
Regeln / Luftraum
The flight area is rarely crowded (only on competition days), so there are no specific flight regulations other than No top landing in strong conditions. Digital radio: channel 5 (I think)

This area is open from April through the end of November. Closed winters because of snow. It's super reliable for soaring conditions and the area management staff is very helpful. ¥2500/day for visitors; ¥500/ride up if you don't top land. Sign in at the 'shop' and don't forget to sign out when you leave.
