Vehicular access to take-off is restricted to approved permit holders only. Access for all other pilots is by foot only (a long carry up). The SE take-off is shallow. The NE Bowl is a committed take-off, and can be turbulent. Hang gliders should use a nose man whenever possible. Hang gliders should always take-off from the very edge of the bowl, even in nil wind. The Northwest take-off is quite friendly.

Bottom take-off (A) is a moderate but fairly flat carry from the car park. Please rig in a sensible place. Don‘t block paths and tracks, or obstruct the small lower take-off area. Take-off can be turbulent in strong winds. Paragliders frequently use the top take-off (B).
