Located in the southwest of Bariloche, Argentina, this paragliding site offers a variety of takeoff options and is regularly used by pilots. The site is known for its potential for cross-country (XC) flights, although thermals and valley breezes can become quite strong in the afternoon. Access to the takeoff points can be achieved either by road or by hiking, as the lifts do not accommodate paragliders. The ski area, which operates in winter, features a gondola that runs seasonally and a chairlift that can take you to the summit. However, be aware that flying above the ski resort and landing within the ski resort area are prohibited. The main takeoff points include: - Punta Princesa at 1800 meters above sea level - Piedra del Cóndor at 1750 meters above sea level - Runway Six at 1600 meters above sea level Landing zones are spacious and include: - Base of the Hill for Punta Princesa or Runway Six (1050 meters above sea level) - Road Field before accessing the hill for Piedra del Cóndor (950 meters above sea level) The site is situated 20 km from the city of Bariloche and can be accessed by vehicle to the base. From there, you can either use the means of elevation or hike up. A license is required to fly at this site, and the best time for flying is from October to April, when thermal activity is strong. Due to controlled airspace, it is mandatory to contact the local airport before flying.
