Comments
Cool site, easy take off and landing, 80% thermal, 20% Soaring. Good all year except december to february because of too much rain. Better potential for XC around september - november and april - june. Key words: Paragliding Cochabamba - Parapente Cochabamba Paragliding Bolivia - Parapente Bolivia
