Reglas / notas
Little used site, but essential on stronger SE days when the wind fails to come in at PN. On these days give good evening flying. Beware flying here on strong wind strong thermal days mid afternoon.
Comentarios de pilotos
This is an excellent easy site, which offers good ridge soaring in the evening when restitution often sets up. We often go to this site when the wind is over the back at early in the day at Peña Negra. If pilots have not climbed out by around 2pm, we will often return Peña Negra. It is common to go over the back at Chia and find convergence with the anabatic wind up the face of the Piedrahita range. We have had some excellent XC flights from here to Salamanca and Cuidad Rodrigo.
