What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about the breathtaking sunset views and the thrilling spectacle of paragliders and hang gliders. The friendly pilot community and panoramic valley vistas are consistently praised, making it a top spot for photography and relaxation. Some find navigation to the exact launch areas a bit tricky.
"I don't personally paraglide or hang glide, but I do live right next to this park and enjoy looking out my windows and watching all the adventurists peacefully soaring through the air. As an avid photographer, I sometimes will go up there to relax and to see if I can capture anything good on the camera. It's a great park to visit even if you don't paraglide. The paragliders I've met have all been very friendly and are enthusiastic to share the love of their sport with each other as well as random strangers like me! There are restrooms and plenty of parking."
