Bonne Nuit

Is it your level?ParaglidingHang gliding

N'ly. Paragliders mostly use this site as the top landing is very small for HGs though recent scrub clearance has improved this. There are several large fields nearby that HGs could top land in or they could land at the Les Platons top landing area.

Getting there

Park in the nearby car park, with the bacon butty and ice cream van, and walk over (PGs). HGs are better to go to Les Platons. It ends up being the same site when you are up anyway

Proper thermic today, climbs to 4 up off the spine. Couple of us still up.

Jonny P.

Bit cross and gusty this afternoon, worth waiting for it to back off after 3.

Dave K.

Bottom field's clear, gate code's the usual. Cows in the top field, land short.
