This paragliding site in Wales, UK, is occasionally used and offers soaring opportunities with the potential for cross-country flights. Top landing is possible. Region: Wales - UK Site record: 7.7 km Flights Club: [South Wales Soaring Club](http://www.swwsc.co.uk/index.php?topic=9.0) Wind direction: E to SE Take-off height above mean sea level: 1250ft (418m) How to get there: From M4 junction 43, take the A465 northeast towards Merthyr. Turn off left for Cilfrew at the 2nd exit and take the next right turn, which will take you up through a residential area and into a narrow lane. Continue uphill for a further 1km until you reach a left turn that leads to Bryncaws Farm. Drive into the farmyard, go left around the barn, then through the gate between the buildings to the right. The track leads all the way up to the hilltop, passing through several gates on the way. Park on the hilltop near takeoff. Landowner and site fee: The Stevens family owns the farm. The site fee is £2.00 per person, payable at the farm either on your way up or on your way out. Rules: Access is permitted through Bryncaws Farm only. Drive carefully and keep to the track wherever possible. Leave gates as you find them. Potential Hazards: After wet weather, the track can be quite slippery and sometimes impassable towards the top. If your vehicle is not suitable, you may park at the bottom of the hill beside the track. Beware of farm animals in the fields alongside the track or in the farmyard. Young lambs may run towards passing vehicles and dive under the wheels. Take-off and landing: Take-off and top-land anywhere along the top. Bottom land in the large fenced-off fields below the hill (see map). Take care not to disturb livestock. Comments: The site features an approximately 2km ridge with plenty of room to take off and land. Conditions in an easterly breeze can be quite rough. The north end of the ridge is tree-covered but works well. The site's proximity to the coast means that in light conditions during spring and summertime, seabreezes can move in as early as midday, sometimes curtailing flying. However, if you are in the air at the time, it can be the start of a cross-country flight. The site has excellent XC potential, with 101km flown to the Mid-Wales coastline.
