Take-off description
large and flat place, no problems except the rocks laying on the ground. Keep an eye on the electrical wires that run close to the take off !!
Getting there
riding the kings highway about 10 km north of Kerak, take a road to the West (at gps point : 31.226601 N, 35.738461 E) Then take right on the next road living to the right (about 500m after the kings road cross roads, gps approx.: 31.227115 N, 35.727282 E) Then follow the road until you get close to the TO waypoint :)
Weather
As always, watch the conditions which can get hard in the country, except for that, nothing special.
Comments
Nice soaring in the valley breeze, with some thermal help, you can fly the 'wide local' site around the valley if you dont fear to walk a bit in case of unwanted landing ;)
