Take-off description
very evident place, next to the gps point given ;) lot of place and perfect slope, may be a bit short, or flat, if not windy.
Getting there
Dana Wild Life Reserve is in any guide, 20 km south of Tafihla on Kings Road. You can't miss it. (but don't follow the road signs to Dana Reserve you will cross while driving south from tafihla, continue until you cross a huge cementery on your left)
Weather
Landing at Dana village may be in the rotors, avoid above all flying down the -narrow- valley, it must be quite windy down there.
Comments
Excellent soaring (breege) + thermals site, breathtaking view, one place you must not miss if you come to fly in jordan.
