Takeoff description
The very big and wide takeoff field is covered by grass. With a nicely blowing headwind which is created by thermal activities, taking off is very easy.
Pilot comments
As the difference of altitude of this site is more than 1400m, even with little thermal activity the flight is very long. But normally there are very good thermal conditions in the opened valley. This way long distance flights are easy to realize. The view is spectacular.
