**Scenery and Conditions:**
Enjoy a stunning Alpine panorama and generally good thermals. Ideal flying seasons are summer and winter.
**Transport:**
Take the train from Ziegelbrücke to Linthal and get off at 'Linthal Braunwaldbahn' station. The funicular to Braunwald departs at xx:25 and xx:55 each hour. The 'Kiosk' launch site is directly below the kiosk next to the mountain station.
**Additional Hazards:**
