Description
Savoleyres, situated at an altitude of 2340 meters, is a launch site that faces the morning sun, making it ideal for early launches. This site is particularly known for long-distance flights, including the renowned Round the Mont-Blanc flight. Access to the take-off point is convenient via cable car or road, followed by a short 15-minute walk.
The launch area is a steep meadow, surrounded by some overhead power lines, so caution is advised. The best time to fly here is in the morning when conditions are most favorable for soaring.
