It has marker balls on it but can still be difficult to see. The site has limited (approved) landing zones which may not always have guaranteed glides to. For this reason it is only suitable to mountain XC experienced pilots, that have the judgment & skills to fly appropriately (read safely).

access

70km N of Melbourne. Near Seymour. (VICROADS 61 D3) Launch: Access is from Ennis Rd (61 C4) via the Hume Hwy, or Fairview Rd (61 E4) via King Parrot Creek Rd. These 2 roads join, follow then turn North into West Falls Rd (61 D4), drive until you reach the Big Green Gate. Access through the LOCKED GATE is now on PRIVATE PROPERTY. The gate is some times awkward to lock due to lockbox, be sure it is 'locked' as there are cattle and horses that roam within. Continue to the launches staying on the existing tracks (that may be quite rocky & rutted).
