A daily membership costing 5€ is required to fly here, which can be purchased at the 'Gaisbergwirt'. Be aware of weather hazards, particularly the Foehn winds.
Due to the proximity of Salzburg Airport, special regulations are in place to ensure the area remains open for paragliding. Compliance with these regulations is mandatory.
Parking directly on the road near the landing zone is not allowed. The meeting point is approximately 200 meters southeast at the campsite, where parking and a cozy lounge are available. Alternatively, groups can share a taxi for around 15€.
Thermal and cross-country flying opportunities are available from January through July, although the site is flyable year-round. For long-distance flights, it is advisable to start early, preferably before noon, heading predominantly south.
The main challenge here is the Salzburg Airport CTR zone, which requires adherence to numerous regulations. Pilots must register in the logbook and pay a landing fee. Since 2007, it has been mandatory to notify the airport when flying in the Gaisberg or Schwarzenberg areas.
