This beautiful flying area is less crowded than Flims but comparable in quality. In summer, you can launch southwards and northwards. In winter, northwards launches are possible, even with skis or snowboards. The launch site is prepared in winter, and the staff will guide you. The area allows for stunning flights into Val Lumnezia and back to Obersaxen or the Rhine Valley in the evening.
Flight Directions:
- SW launch is considered easy.
- SE launch is considered difficult.
In winter, the launch site is above the chairlift station, oriented roughly NNW. Multiple flight options include:
- North to the Meierhof valley station.
- North to the Rhine Valley (Ruein).
- South to Val Lumnezia (Vella 1244m; Triel 1600m) and then back up with the lift to Hitzeggen.
Landing:
You can land on any mowed meadow. In winter, the usual landing spot is directly below the parking lot at the valley station if you arrived by car or plan to take the post bus.
Difficulty:
With south-west winds, you fly in the lee. You may need to lay out and launch slightly below the main launch site.
Special Notes and Webcam:
This is a beautiful flying area with excellent cross-country potential and is also ideal for leisure flights.
WARNING:
The area is within the danger zone LS-D10 Tavanas (Brigels: Flab shooting range). Check KOSIF for more information.
Walk and Fly:
