Takeoff description

Medium large gravel field, ok for simultaneous preparation for >5 gliders, with a medium small slope. Currently there is no windsock (as of January 2025) The takeoff is accessible by a short gravel road connecting to the asphalted panoramic road, no need for 4x4 drive. From the landing the takeoff can be hiked back in max 30 minutes - initially on the small access road, and then "straight up" once on the hill below the take-off location.
