Takeoff height is about 1650m. There is no slope on takeoff site but only 15 m long runway, and its just a crag at the end of the runway. You have only one chance to takeoff. And needs N wind.
Getting there
Getting to the takeoff site is cheap and easy by teleferic from the city center. You need to walk about 15 minutes in the forest after you get off the teleferic.
