Takeoff description
take off from the ridge of Ardascheia, you have to walk up about one hour and a half, about 600m altitude difference, it's a good and nice walk, we use it when the wind is too weak to climb from below the forest and, yes, when we like to make some fitness :-) Site oriented to south-east, small take off area (you risk the trees just below) quite steep meadow just on the ridge, forest below, left and right, good luck :-)
