Take-off description
On the Ouen Toro hill, 60m hight.
Getting there
When driving on the Pierre Vernier promenade, at the place called la côte blanche, leave your car at the car park and get the path going in the valley. Climb up to the take off, it's a 10 mn walk.
Weather
See breezes strenghten the wind late in the morning and the site is no more flyable. Take care not to be trapped behind the ridges at this time, and ever. The alarm signal comes from the sea as soon as the white caps appear, it's time to land.
Comments
A special soaring site downtown with a panoramic view over the shore and the nearby islands.
