Pinnacle Hill offers alternative launch sites for hang gliders, specifically Black and Perseverance. Black Hill, with a height of 267 meters (878 feet) and a top-to-bottom (TTB) of 713 feet, is best suited for wind directions from East to East-Southeast (90° - 120°), with the optimal direction being 100°. Be cautious of the path along the edge of the hill, which is frequented by walkers. The top of the hill has a sharp edge, and starting your run from lower down can introduce hazards from trees and their turbulence. If the wind shifts north of East, turbulence from larger trees can become significant. There is no immediate bottom landing, and the fields below have a considerable slope and are often in crop, with no permission to land. A minimum wind speed of 10 mph is usually required to ensure you can land in the conventional fields to the north. Perseverance Hill stands at 280 meters (921 feet) with a TTB of 756 feet. The best wind direction for launch is from East-Northeast to East (60° - 90°), with the optimal direction being 80°. The rigging area is in rotor, so proceed to launch with care, keeping the rear sail of the glider low. There are two potential launch points: a raised lump and a flatter area slightly to the south, the latter of which can be turbulent. Similar to Black Hill, there is no immediate bottom landing, and you must be confident in making progress south to land in the conventional fields. Access to Black Hill is via the B4232 (Jubilee Drive) at the southern end, with parking available at the Black Hill pay & display car park (WR13 6DW). The take-off area is at the top of the ridge above the car park. Access to Perseverance Hill is via the B4232 (Jubilee Drive) at the northern end, with parking at the Plateau pay & display car park (WR13 6DQ). The take-off area is 200 meters south of the Wyche Cutting and 150 meters East-Northeast of the Plateau car park.
