Takeoff description
Grass field
Pilot comments
...there is a time road to go to spitzbuhel , you must take it before 9 am, or after 5pm for going up. There is a free parking at spitzbuhel . To go down no time rules. Road is easy. Bus can bring you up but every 2 hours only. Around 8 euros for cable car to reach take off . Landing on large field but not flat , you have wc in the farm just near. You can also take cable car from Suisi , but it is expensive and you have to walk down to reach spitzbuhel station . Beware from wind , it can comes from behind , be sure you have front wind, before take off.
