Description
The launch at the steep ascent to Stöckli can be a bit tricky due to the very steep and terraced meadow.
Filzbach is situated on the high plateau of Kerenzerberg above Lake Walen. The Nüenchamm, at 1903 meters above sea level, is part of the Heidiland tourist area.
The flying area is accessible by post bus and lift. However, the valley wind from Kerenzerberg often blows over the ridge, creating rotors and lee-side turbulence.
From the top station of the chairlift, various unofficial launch sites can be reached on foot. The farthest is undoubtedly up to Nüenchamm.
From the top station of the chairlift, you can enjoy a leisurely glide (about 10 minutes) down to the valley.
From higher up (Nüenchamm), you can launch southwards into the Glarnerland towards Mollis. However, you must be aware of the Mollis control zone from a certain altitude.
Nüenchamm and Mulleren are historic sites for paragliding in the Glarus region, where older gliders often struggled to reach the valley floor.
If you take the longer route towards Nüenchamm (details available in the GeoInfo), you have various other launch options, such as high above Kerenzerberg, around the altitude where gliders from Mollis circle [Mittelstafel, or further back: Untere Nüen]. The marked route on the hiking map can be shortened if Nüenchamm is your goal.
Difficulty
There are power lines to be aware of! If you only want to fly from the top station to Filzbach, you must navigate several high-voltage lines.
Vegetation must be carefully considered to avoid significant problems.
For soaring, it is more convenient to play around Kerenzerberg or follow the signposts from the top station towards Nüenchamm (keep right) and launch around Mittelstafel (NW direction) or Untere Nuen (W direction).
