The southeast or southwest takeoff directions are available. This site is a favorite for thermal flying, especially for delta wings. Access is via Méranges, followed by a track that requires moderate ground clearance. The Spanish Cerdagne plain and the southern exposure ensure good thermal activity starting from 12-1 PM. The first thermal can be found in front or to the right, near the trees at 200 meters. Cross-country routes can lead to Les Mauroux or La Seu d'Urgell. Landing is possible in Méranges if the fields are mowed; otherwise, there is a perfect plateau above Greixer, accessible via the Sant Joseph track from Méranges. The southeast takeoff will soon be improved for delta wings, while the southwest takeoff is located at the edge of the trees, 200 meters from the track. Thermals here are flattened and difficult to turn, so the southeast takeoff is preferred. GPS coordinates for the takeoff are 2114m, 31T 0402344 4700350.
