Monte Boglelio, standing at 1448 meters with a height difference of 935 meters, is occasionally used for both paragliding and hang gliding. Toplanding is possible, and there are several takeoff options available. For more details on flights, visit: [Monte Boglelio Flights](http://www.settimocielogenova.it/voli/MonteBoleglio.html) How to get there: There are various ways to reach the landing zone at Fabbrica Curone. The simplest route is as follows: Take the A-7 GENOVA - MILANO highway. Exit at Tortona and continue towards Viguzzolo, Volpedo, Brignano Frascata, and finally Fabbrica Curone. After passing through the town, about 30 meters before the junction to Selvapiana, on the right, you will find a large field divided by a low-voltage power line, which is the official landing zone. After checking the landing area and leaving some vehicles for retrieval, take the junction to Selvapiana 30 meters ahead and continue to the top of Monte Boglelio at 1,491 meters above sea level. The dirt road is easy to navigate even with regular cars (though not very low ones). Once you reach the ridge, continue for about 1 km in the NW direction until a large meadow opens up on the left: this is the takeoff area. The large takeoff area facing WNW allows for launches with winds from the W to almost full N (be cautious of the leeward side just outside!). Landing: Refer to the 'how to get there' section for directions. The landing field is large, oriented S-N, and visibly divided by a power line. This site is fairly popular among local hang gliders and has recently been explored by paragliders. It was our first time here, so we don't have extensive information, but: You can rely on the Giarolo and take advantage of this 'mythical' flight in the area. It is located near Chiappo and Monte Penice and is used as a waypoint for cross-country flights from one mountain to another. This flight is definitely worth trying and revisiting. Unofficial reports indicate it was tested by paragliders on August 22, 1999.
