Take-off description
Spacious grassy slopes for take-off halfway up and at the summit. Easy launch and often fairly thermic in summer with cycles flowing up the south face.
Getting there
From Aosta follow Breuil-Cervinia, at Buissons take the cable car to Chamois and the local ski resort lifts to the summit.
Weather
Don't fly with strong west wind or Foehn. Watch the winds in the Valley D'Aosta. There is a risk of over development in the region.
