Takeoff description
There are two Take-off places; the first is 1060 mt. high, southwest exposed, easily reached by jeep (by car there is a ten mins walk), it's quite big and without obstacles. The second, 200 mt higher (1250) is south exposed and used mostly by hang-gliders. It's quite narrow for paragliders.
Pilot comments
Beautiful sightseeing, the 'Val d'Arno' is really nice to overfly. There are many Bed & breakfast and restaurants
