Description
Located in the Sogn og Fjordane region of Norway, this paragliding site offers a takeoff height of 388 meters above sea level with a height difference of 340 meters. It is occasionally used, with possibilities for soaring and cross-country flights. There are alternative takeoff spots nearby.
To reach the site, drive from Naustdal towards Stavang along the fjord for 1.5 to 2 kilometers until you see a sign for 'Kringla' on the right. Follow the road all the way up and park below the farm. You can start either under the mountain or on the pasture outside the farm. Despite its modest height of 350 meters, it is known for good thermals.
Local rules include:
- Speak with the farmer if the ground is wet or the grass is tall.
- Park in the designated area (do not park in the turnaround spot).
- This site is challenging because you need enough altitude to clear the tree line below the start and the right conditions to reach the landing area in Naustdal. If you can't reach this landing, you must land by the fjord on a small sloped field surrounded by trees and telephone lines, requiring at least PP3/SP3 certification.
