You can park your car at the edge of the meadow behind the village of Podlešín. The takeoff is a gentle meadow with a sufficiently wide clearing. For navigation, look for the Vaňovská viewpoint. Be cautious when landing at this beautiful spot. For top landing, fly as far as possible beyond the wires and use the pastures and meadows behind the road. There is strong turbulence behind the ridge. Landing on the field in Vaňov is also problematic due to roads, wires, the river, buildings, and strong valley winds. Avoid landing on the field if a football match is in progress. For more details, visit: [Vaňov Paragliding Site](http://www.paragliding-mapa.cz/startovacka.php?idstart=73).
