Take-off description
Grassy takeoff, quite large, can easily host >10 wings. One can takeoff towards SE and W easily, but also towards NE is necessary (smaller area, more stones).
Getting there
No access restriuctions on takeoff or landing. Getting to the takeoff involves as a minimum 30 min hike.
Weather
Usually very generous site in autumn and winter, and string site in spring / summer. The valley breeze down below typically arrives at 10..11AM and lasts until 17..18. Can be string (25kmh) but normally never too string for a safe landing.
Rules / airspace
G class airspace until 5900m AMSL. Usual free-flying rules apply.
Comments
For hike&fly lovers, you can reach the site also from the landing or Pinasca. Depending on your level of fitness, it may take 1..2 hours. There is no water on the summit or ridge. But there are fountains in the villages on the way up.
