About This Spot
With 450 meters above the landing place and 3 thermals working in front of the starting place is easy to make a good flight, just be careful in the non-rainy season from February to May can get very strong after 11.30 am, it becomes flyable after 3 or 4 pm until 7, in the rest of the year you practically fly at any hour.
