The ideal wind direction to ridge the top of the Famara ridge (Mirador) is NNW anyhow. This takeoff here is suitable even for light North wind. And, it is super for a local evening flight. SP auch für etwas weniger Wind geeignet. Famara is the higlight of Lanzarote! Soaring NW winds with smaller thermics along a breath-taking 20km volcanic cliff Hier: SP Salida de Melo, Höhe 415 m, hier nicht toplanden, Rotoren. How to get there: Drive small dirt roads going NW from the center of Teguise The higlight of Lanzarote! Soaring NW winds with smaller thermics along a breath-taking 20km volcanic cliff See Map directly beneath overview-map for more details Wind: NW-W Access: Drive small dirt roads going NW from the center of Teguise Start: There is 4 different places, depending on the wind. The stronger the wind gets the further South you must go. 1) HangGliders starting place (often difficult, because wind is strong & the cliff steep -> Rotor!) (see Waypoint S-HANG) There is also a better chance to start 200m to the north-east of the Hanggliders in the first depression on the rim. 2) Water Reservoir (med) inbetween 1) and 2) little concrete platforms mark the water reservoirs. 3) Hill south of that (easy) Typical place where you see many Paragliders starting (somewhere around Waypoint S-EJOS) Usually almost the same strength as 1) but completely laminar 4) The bottom of that hill (often used for landing!): pull up glider and walk up the hill until you are lifted away! usually 10km/h less wind then at 3) Landing: Toplanding is usually dangerous at 1) and sometimes at 2). Better to topland at 3) and best to use 4) as most people do Die besten Flugbedingungen beginnen ab Oktober bis März. Im Sommer ist der NO Passat sehr oft zu stark. Es sei denn man geht Kitsurfen oder Wellenreiten. Das Revier besticht durch seine guten Aufwinde und Thermikeinlagen. Dadurch sind Streckenflüge entlang der Famara-Steilküste gen Mirador del Rio keine Seltenheit. Hin ca. 20km ab Hauptstartplatz. Drachen und Gleitschirme können schöne und ausgedehnte Soaringspaziergänge hinlegen. Schwierigkeit Starkwindfliegen ohne Ende ist nichts für Einsteiger. Lange Zeit keine Landemöglichkeiten. Schaut Euch daher vorher die Strecke und Plätze zum runtergehen an. Anfahrt:Die Anfahrt zum Hauptstartplatz ist nicht leicht - wer aber einmal da war findet es wieder. Die LZ -30 von Süd West nach Teguise und vor der Tankstelle links abbiegen. Dann im wechsel links - rechts halten. Wenn Ihr Glück habt trefft Ihr den ein oder anderen Drachenflieger gut zu erkennen - einfach folgen. Alle Inselflieger sind mir freundlich in Erinnerung geblieben. Wir kommen jederzeit wieder :-) - Take off : Of course -if the wind speed is ok- PG's can also takeoff (and land here) More information on ParaglidingEarth Landing : TOP landing for PG's possible; beware of rotor with high winds! br> Going there : by car from Teguise.
