Take-off description
This flying site has one of the best take offs in all of Antioquia.. There is a wide field without any obstacle, covered by grass on which one paragliders can prepare for takeoff. Taking off with a good headwind is very easy all day long. Â Nice house thermal located out in from of launch.

Comments
Located in the Valley of the Tonusco the thermal conditions are nice and smooth. Because of the hot temeprature, the thermals reach a high altitude and on a good day you should have no problem doing a long distance flight.
