Description
Wonogiri, located in Central Java, Indonesia, offers a unique paragliding experience. The launch site is situated at an elevation of 575 meters above sea level in the Stone Hills, which run from North-East to South-West. The takeoff point faces the Gajah Mungkur Basin, providing a scenic backdrop for your flight.
The cross-country route heads towards the North and North-East, flying over expansive flat rice paddies and small hills, which are ideal conditions for cross-country flying. Local pilots often frequent this site, although they do not always log their flights. Some enthusiasts consider it one of Indonesia's best spots for cross-country paragliding.
The region is known for its excellent thermals and significant cross-country potential. For instance, the distance to Solo City is approximately 40 km in a straight line, a route that local pilots regularly achieve. It is also possible to fly along a small mountain range towards the Northwest and return if the wind conditions are favorable. The best flying conditions are typically in the afternoon.
