Description
Eptingen, located in Switzerland, is a popular paragliding site with an elevation of 992 meters. This site is frequently used and offers excellent conditions for ridge soaring (Bisensoaring) and potential for good cross-country (XC) flights.
The region is known for its beautiful landscapes and is a starting point for Jura hikes. Eptingen is the highest municipality in the Diegter Valley, surrounded by the Folded Jura. The area ranges in elevation from 522 meters to 1124 meters above sea level.
When the wind at Kilchzimmersattel is too strong, Eptingen serves as a good alternative. However, paragliding here can be challenging. Soaring is only possible with moderate to strong winds, starting from 10 knots. Be cautious of turbulence during takeoff, especially with a tendency for north winds.
