Paragliding Gustavsberg

Gustavsberg is a paragliding site occasionally used for local soaring flights. It is located just south of Uddevalla, near a swimming and sports facility along the old E6 road. Pilots typically fly over the road. The site is a ridge (Hang) with a starting altitude of 70 meters above sea level and a height difference of 70 meters. The maximum flight altitude is 1370 meters. The launch is on a cliff above the swimming bay, and the path to the launch site should be shown. The launch can be challenging, especially for hang gliders, as there is a very short distance to run. It is not recommended to launch in strong winds and requires three assistants for a safe start. Landing options include top landing, landing on the football fields, or on the beach. Pilots should be cautious of power lines and rotor effects from the trees. For more information, you can visit the [VSK Flygguide](http://www.vsk.info/vsk2/main.php?sida=flygguide&visa=Gustavsberg).
