This takeoff serves as an alternative to Alto del Guayabo and is often used by students for their initial soaring and thermal flights. The takeoff faces southeast, overlooking the valley, and is located on a small ridge with the takeoff point being the highest spot.
Conditions and Flight: Pilots typically begin soaring and catching the first thermals around 10 AM when the wind blows from the east. As the day progresses, the valley breeze strengthens, especially around noon.
