Saint Vincent les Forts
DESCRIPTION
This site is not for beginners!! Take off is short and in a strong slope, top landing may be tricky !! But once in the air, this is a tremendous site : wonderful flying above the lake, and if you fly up to Dormillousse castle, a huge XC potential is in front of you; to the South to Saint Vincent Les Forts, or go have a breathtaking view of the lake of 'Serre Poncon' going north above the Morgon. This site may be crowded in the summer season, learn your priority rules and fly 'relax' ;)ACTIVITIES

weather
Lake breeze may get strong at take off during the hot afternoon hours. Avoyd the rotors while landing top : don't go to far downwind on your landing approach. This site can be flown if there is 'Mistral' in the Rhone valley, but then it gets )very) crowded...access
The launch is in the village, next to the biggest hotel, you can't miss it ! To go to Saint Vincent, find a road map ;)Take off
