Take-off description
Multiple decently sized takeoffs with low-ish grass, there are many rocky patches so make sure to have your runway planned
Getting there
It's an hour drive from Mbarara and then another 1.5-2 hour hike to the top. Best way is to take a taxi frommbarara to just after Kahihi (ask to be dropped at the Moonshine primary school; wicked name by the way!) from there ask a bodaboda driver to take you to the isingiro trail.
Weather
it is always windy (usually the right direction for dynamic lift) The plane in front of the site is very wet and often over develops in the afternoons with monstrous clouds.
Rules / airspace
Nonexistent
Comments
You will spend a lot of time talking to the locals. They are all very friendly and love to just hang out. Make sure to greet people on the way!
