Wijk aan Zee


DESCRIPTION

Dune flying is somewhat special and due to the strong winds and crowds at these well know spaces it is not really suitable for beginners. Often even experienced mountain pilots have problems at the beginning so practice strong wind launches and handling your wing over slippery and steep terrain - you will need it or make a fool of yourself.

ACTIVITIES

- paragliding
- soaring

weather

Strong wind and lower classed wings have only a small useable wind window. Too much and you get easily blown over the back. There are also sections in the dune who form nice venturis with low lift.

access

There are signs pointing you towards the beach entrance from Wijk aan Zee centrum.

regulation

Mostly only tolerated, keep that in mind! Check the dune soaring info flyer from the dutch paragliding association.
