Description
Goldeck offers one of the most stunning views over Spittal and Lake Millstatt. You can reach the launch sites from Spittal using the Goldeck cable car. There's also a toll road leading up to Goldeck, but the cable car is the more convenient option. From the Seetal parking lot at the end of the scenic road, it's about a one-hour hike to the summit and launch sites. At nearly 2,100 meters above sea level, the green summit provides a breathtaking panorama of the surrounding mountains, including views of the Großglockner, which is sure to thrill any pilot.
Goldeck is an excellent alternative to Tschiernock, especially in north or west wind conditions. The site allows for launches in almost all directions, though the launch sites are better suited for hang gliders. Each launch site features a wooden ramp. For paragliders, the main launch site facing north, just above the mountain station, is the most interesting. In north wind conditions, Goldeck serves as an ideal ridge for soaring back and forth near the summit. However, the north-facing orientation and the challenging terrain make Goldeck less ideal for cross-country flights. Experienced pilots can still embark on cross-country routes, typically along the northern slopes towards Villach. Other launch sites require a high level of experience due to the need to navigate around ridges and mountain flanks.
The large landing field is located near the valley station of the Goldeck cable car in the Spittal meadows. Be aware that this landing site is occasionally used by helicopters.
Flights often head towards Villach/Drobatsch and the 'Gerlitzen' or into the Oderdrautal (southeast). Sometimes, a detour to Tschiernock is possible. Overall, the area is rated as excellent. Due to its exposed location, the thermals at Goldeck are generally gentle and smooth.
