Descripción del despegue
Big and nicley-prepared launch above the road just before the highest point of the pass. The site can be tricky in SW-conditions because of the thermals from the gully to the left of the launch; and the 'wind' often appears to be coming from that direction. Wind can get strong. Launch from as far back as possible (rear right looking up-slope). This allows a run with good speed as you become airborne. Hang-gliders usually launch from the steel ramp below the road opposite the paragliding launch. Launch site fee R50 per day or R500 per year (pay at the Lodge before your flight). The launch is nicely prepared with netting and large enough for 2-3 wings. Medium difficulty.
