DESCRIPTION

This is a Members only site, so please ensure membership is up to date, or join before you leave home! (-: Thanks........ A scenic site with a ridge of around 10Km (6 miles). In the right conditions it‘s possible to jump the gap at the end of the ridge, and fly on to Hay Bluff. However, the site can be turbulent in strong winds, particularly when it‘s off to the North. The level of competence needed to fly Pandy safely shouldn‘t be underestimated. Safe top landing areas are limited, don‘t leave gliders in them. This is a sensitive site, please drive slowly and with consideration for local residents. Club Pilots with less than 10 hrs logged may only fly under the supervision of an Instructor or Club Coach. The site is closed between 1st - 21st May to allow stock to be settled on the hillside.

ACTIVITIES

- paragliding
- hanggliding
- hike
- soaring

weather

Rotor can be very severe in strong winds. Beware of rotor from the large tree to the North of the lower take-off. Paragliders should not allow themselves to drop much below the lower ridge as flying close and low is made extremely hazardous by trees.
