DESCRIPTION

Very occasional flying site, mostly due to low altitude gain. Can be flown in winter when cloudbase is very low, however the flight is a short glide. Can be flown in evenings when westen side of Moncuni is exposed to sun. Don't expect long flights there but the scenery is spectacular.

ACTIVITIES

- paragliding
- thermals

weather

Do not fly with foen winds. Beware that entering valle Susa in summer afternoons means facing its strong walley breeze winds (can be over 50kmh)

access

Go to village of Reano either through Avilgiana and trana (SP589) or Rosta (reachable from SS25). If driving from Trana, drive through the village of Reano until a kind of one way street system which makes a circle in the village center. Turn left there and go towards the church. Pass the church on the right side and continue straight until next crossroad (200m) then turn left, and then go until the end of the asphalted road. Few meters up the gravel road there is a parking spot. Otherwise you can leave it at the end of asphalted road. Walk (approx 20min) on the gravel road to towards the peak of the hill, and you will find the takeoff also there.

regulation

Do not fly over the small lake of Avigliana, it is a nature sanctuary and flights over there are theoretically not allowed. Beware of high ultralight and general aviation aircraft activity in the area.
