Descripción del despegue
130m ASL Just 50m to the right of the small clearing where you parked. Please launch towards the front of the ridge to minimize environmental impact of our flying on the Fynbos reserve, where the owners graciously (although we pay for it) let us fly.
Cómo llegar
From George or Wilderness, drive along the N2 towards Sedgefield untill you reach a restaurant on your right called Fynbos Grill. Stop there to sign and pay the entry fee of 75 rand. Then drive up the road (great condition), past the owners house - respect the owners privacy and do not speed. You will arrive at a small clearing. Park here.
Meteo
SE light wind only. Excellent if Paradise ridge is too light (<15km/hour). This site will then work well. Dont fly in strong (>25km/hour) wind.

This is a Fynbos (a type of heather) reserve. Do not litter, do not smoke,do not make fires, do not speed on the road. Violating any rule will get you banned for life. Please read the posted rules and regulations. Pay the usage fee at Wilderness beach hotel or Fynbos restaurant / Cheeseman at the entry gate to Gerricke's Point. It will get you a sticker for your helmet and allows you to fly the whole Garden Route (25 sites), except Gerricke's Point which is a small extra fee to fly on private property. Please purchase the site guide from http://bestflyingsites.com/paragliding-south-africa.html It has been excerpted here many times. Please support this excellent publication.
