This paragliding site, located in the UK, is rarely used and primarily for members only. It offers soaring opportunities but has specific restrictions and conditions to be aware of. The site is accessible only to members of the SE Wales Hang Gliding and Paragliding Club and the Welsh Free Flight Federation, with permission from the Trustees of the Llanover Estate. The wind direction is best from the southeast (135°), and the site can be flown in ESE to SSE directions (122° - 157°). Road access is from Crumlin or Pontypool on the A472. At Hafodyryns, take the minor road leading to the back of the common and a track. Vehicular access via the track requires permission from the Trustees of the Llanover Estate, and the ground can become boggy during wet months. Alternatively, there is foot access via a public footpath starting in Ty Canol Way, Cwmbran. If using the footpath, park sensibly in Ty Canol Way. The take-off area is easy with a wide lift band. If using the track, the carry is minimal; if using the footpath, it is a long carry up. The top landing area is expansive but slopes gently to the edge, so land well back to avoid overshooting. There is no bottom landing for hang gliders. Paragliders can land on the open hillside before the power lines, but this area can be turbulent, especially in strong winds. Do not land in any enclosed fields. Flying conditions can be pleasant with a wide lift band allowing excursions over Cwmbran town. However, paragliders should be cautious of flying close to the hill below ridge level due to steep rough ground and turbulence behind the trees. Hazards include power lines and pylons. Severe rotor can occur to the south of Llanderfel Farm in winds over 15mph, combined with a sharp ridge and a forest, which can be dangerous. This is a sensitive site, so please park sensibly on residential roads and respect the rights of other users of the common. For more detailed information, you can visit [Fly South Wales - Cwmbran Ty Canol](https://www.flysouthwales.co.uk/site-guides/cwmbran-ty-canol/).
