Moel Eilio, located in North Wales, UK, is a popular site for paragliding enthusiasts. The hill stands at an elevation of 350-378 meters and is regularly used for soaring, with cross-country (XC) flights being possible. The site offers many takeoff options, making it versatile for different wind conditions. However, it is important to note that there are three different 'Moel Eilio' launches, so ensure you are at the correct one to avoid confusion. The region of Snowdonia is renowned for its excellent free-flying conditions, offering high 'alpine' conditions and significant XC potential for both paraglider and hang glider pilots. The area is free from significant airspace restrictions for up to 100 kilometers, making it an ideal location for long-distance flights. The central valley of Llanberis hosts the three main flying sites, making the village a convenient base for pilots. Llanberis also boasts a good tourist infrastructure and a centrally located landing field. Moel Eilio itself is a conical hill that overlooks Llanberis to the north and is strategically positioned for XC flights to Snowdon and beyond. However, pilots should avoid landing in the bowl on the east side of the spur, as this land is off-limits. Additionally, do not take off from the eastern side of the takeoff spur. When flying at Moel Eilio, there are several important considerations: - Do not block lanes, gateways, or access for the farmer. - Avoid flying on the east side of the northerly ridge. - Do not overfly low or land near the Chapel of Rest or in the small fields immediately below and north of the takeoff area. The site can present challenges, particularly with turbulence at Clogwyn Du'r Arddu, especially if there is a northerly wind. Pilots should watch the various lakes for wind clues when reaching Moel Cynghorion. Safety is paramount, as the sea breeze significantly affects this hill. The wind can strengthen suddenly, especially early in the day as sea breezes start to work. The ridge top is narrow on the northwest-facing rib extending from the takeoff to the summit of Eilio.
