At an altitude of 1386 meters with a height difference of 895 meters, this paragliding site in Saltaus, Italy, is frequently used and offers soaring and cross-country (XC) flying opportunities. You can access the site by car or cable car. The takeoff is a steep grassy slope located next to the Prennanger guesthouse. For more details, you can visit the cable car's website: [Hirzer Cable Car](http://www.hirzer.info). Please note that since the 2010 flying season, the landing zone has changed to Quellenhof, which is about 1-2 kilometers north of the Hirzer cable car valley station. It's advisable to check with the Tandem Club at the valley station for the latest information. Flying here is straightforward. A special treat is flying north towards Jaufen Pass. The risk of sinking out is relatively low because the road and landing fields run parallel to the flight path in the valley below. Additionally, there is a bus service every half hour. For the return journey, you can start at the Jaufen Pass summit and then head towards Hirzer and beyond. Be cautious of the strong valley winds, power lines, and the river nearby. The landing zone should be thoroughly inspected before the flight. In the recommended landing area, there were several rows of approximately 1-meter-high pipes for field irrigation as of September 2007. While the spacing is sufficient for hang gliders, it still requires careful maneuvering. For hang gliders, the landing field is not ideal as it slopes slightly in the direction of the final approach. A precise landing pattern is necessary due to the trees at the edge and the irrigation pipes, which leave little room for error. Using a single-surface glider or a brake parachute is recommended. The takeoff area is excellent, and you might be able to set up on flat ground if you ask at the nearby guesthouse.
