Moel Famau is a paragliding site located midway along the Clwydian range in the UK, approximately 3 miles downwind of Ruthin in a WSW wind. The summit of Moel Famau is the highest point in the Clwydian range at 1800ft / 550m ASL. This site is regularly used for soaring and offers many takeoff options, but it is not recommended for beginners due to potential turbulence, especially during the summer when sea breezes are common. The takeoff height is 1460ft (444m) with a top-to-bottom height of 1200ft (365m). The site has a fair XC potential, although airspace downwind can be limiting. The airspace is classified as Class A at 4500ft (1380m), and it is clear for 3 miles to the west. The site record for paragliding is 20.2 km, set by Noel Humphreys on 16/07/1998, and for hang gliding, it is 64.8 km, set by Bob Little on 14/07/2002. Parking is available in two car parks at the top of the pass, with a fee of approximately £1 per day. The carry-up to the takeoff area is moderately difficult, involving a steady climb of about 350ft / 105m from the car park. Takeoff and top landing are moderately easy, but the slopes towards takeoff in both wind directions require careful handling. The designated bottom landing field is a 1.5-mile glide from takeoff, located next to the 'Griffin' Pub on the A494 Mold to Ruthin road. Emergency bottom landings can be made in the 'stump' field directly in front of and below takeoff, but this field is limited in size and slopes towards power lines. Flying at Moel Famau requires a permit, strictly controlled by the Denbighshire County Council. Permits can be obtained by contacting the Countryside Office or applying by post. Failure to comply with permit requirements may jeopardize the use of all sites in the area controlled by the council.
